The Youth Is Shakily Spiritual

At Life’s Early Phase, Your feet on trembling base, It is Evil that pays And its music that plays … At life’s Incipient Stage, When one isn’t of Age, Vice A Thousand Kilos weighs Not what The Bishop says … And at vice Youths intently gaze, Not at Virtues’ Sublime Rays; Wrongs rejecting with “Sickly Nays”; Not much from Life-Changing Sundays! The whole picture asserts ‘A Craze’, In sincere circles denied a half praise … It is in youths habitual To be shakily spiritual.
