And David Said
My form of sonnet.
Ajosh Sonnet.
"Is their any that is left of the house of saul?
Any?,Simeon,Peter,Judah or Paul?
And so was he told of saul's servant; Ziba,
A bull that often pulled the trigger's rod.
Then dis David summoned ziba's legs,
That he-Ziba- may be hint on Saul's blood dreg.
Then "Thy servant is he" said Ziba,
With his promiscous heart pointed with desire.
"Mephiboseth Is Jonathan's fruit", Said he,
That he was lamed at course of his mother flee.
Then by the King's order did the lame governed as a ruler,
While the agile, till the land for him chewing; 'Yes Lord'.
Though,Mephiboseth was conspicously lamed;
But his God was not lame.
