Turn away

Oust the fall of men from mind

and the wait of blood of children kind

take far away from thee such cruel

and wicked ways that blind

 

Take into thee the salt and light

of truth and good correction

for though the fire burns tonight

for the spirit, is left resurrection

 

Ne'er lie, dear readers, who read with good mind

for those are only desperate traps of old

Ne'er tempt the good to fall into vile ways

or watch your path under foot, unfold.

 

Stay away from fermented embers, and strange women

who draw you to themselves

or you will fall into dark and dreary ways

that even the angels do not dare to delve

 

Follow the truth, the peace and righteous

leave any poisons behind

for there are greater things to behold in this life

and it begins with a higher state of mind
