Speaking of the Devil

So let us not think
About the Devil in
Legion and in passing
           --- Fore ---
He appears' to be a friend
In allegiance and passion
The rhetoric may never end
The wages' of death is sin'
Thank the Lord the all mighty
That the Devil never win
So take my advice before 
It is too late, fore
The more we suffer
And the more we participate
The more the trials'
And Tribulations' re-mediate
       --- Fore ---
They are scrupled
And they are masked
They surely doth' begin
To emulate the past
This is of his own doing
