Of Tasteful Trait
I speak the words...of tasteful trait
For you, my friends...to get it straight
To etch upon...my stone or slate
These words I always...try to state
"Thou shall love...and thou shall not hate"
Be' eth engraved...on heaven's gate
My love, to all...I shall donate
From now, until...my dying date
