Where the Blame Lies.

There is no devil in the world, my friend;
only sometimes too much Of God Think you
That He, the Lord, has dealt us out a few
Virtues and privileges to defend
Against some iiend whose power ne can put
bend
Himself? Believe it not; It's time you knew
Yourself to be the only iiend to sue
For overwealth you could not comprehend
Is the red wine too red! Is love too sweet?
And passion riotous? Are wealth and fame
Things to be truckled for? This only say
That Gods fine trust in you was too complete;
And yours, not Satans, be the pitiful shame,
If the Lords faith in man you dare betray.

THOUGHTS FOR THIS LIFE AND THE NEXT

The dear Lords best Interpreters
Are humble human souls;
The Gospel of life like hers
Is more than books or scrolls.
From scheme and creed the light goes out,
The sanity fact survives;
The blessed Master none can doubt
Revealed in holy lives.
