As this holy man made his way

how his eyes would shine rapturously mad

the beauty of the truth,

in the knowledge of their eyes.
And he smiled at me

as he cast the sleeve into

his head and prayed.
And he cried out

So I turned and marched along to mass,
G

C
An d my temple be
G

came stone and glass.
