Image result for Pictures of the adulter caught

"The truth stood downcast in the lie" Naked, afraid of such a deed The tongue had wagged so much 'twas sore How should his adulteress proceed? As she viewed particles of truth "The truth stood downcast in the lie" For truth was ashamed to accept The fault bestowed upon itself His wife tossed carelessly aside Her feelings rubbish in his eyes "The truth stood downcast in the lie" Truth could not look straight in her eyes Eyes the window of her deep soul Would decree betrayal untold As the adulteress truly knows "The truth stood downcast in the lie"
