We have saved the soul Of the man

But for her that fell have we fashioned

1t was so of old; and no man has told
What our Lord wrote in Me dust.
We have sighed betimes Of our broth

And have bade them be Of cheer
For the flesh is weak. and the soul
grown meek
May yet read its titles clear;
But we draw away from the one asray
AS the truly righteous must.
She is cursed, indeed land we did
not read
What our Lord wrote in the dust.
And the men who thieved, and who
killed and lied
Who have slain the woman soul
We have worked and prayed and have
seen them made
All clean and all pure and whole =
But we drive her out with righteous
shout
In our Pharisaic trust.
So the man goes free-but we did moi
