the Noise woke the Children
seems to be no good reason why
a man should write like a brute
this christlile dervish
has thoughts that wear
the hues of Heaven
would leave this place
if there were some other
but everyday when I wake up
another letter from
the Navy Department
Advises me to remain in my post
he is a very naughty boy
no one could manage him
you'd be surprised
at how easy it is
any woman can have influence
the Prince charitably
promised to bury him
with full honors
in his own country
but before death comes
earning those glories
in that instant
he felt all the sweetness
few things drive me to tears
as easily as bible verses
the truth is
every single verse
has a story to it
I don't know the full story
I don't think anyone alive
knows the full story
