Sonnet 55, 'I Sing the Right To Purity, As a Deed'
I sing the Right to Purity, as a Deed
That God hath deeded us, with Fiery Hand
And writ His Word on Tablets we can Read
And given us the full and great command:
‘Thy Neighbor As Thyself, So Shalt Thou Love,
And Me, Love with thy All, Mind, Heart and Soul
And Strength, both from Below as from Above”
Thus shalt, by Test of Ten, Thou, reach the goal!
For never did God filthiness admit
Into His Heavn’ly Spires, nor on His Streets
Of Gold, did Saint or Angel ever spit
For there, in Heav’n God each need cleanly meets!
We have responsibility to love
Most Fervently, what comes from Up Above!
