A Memorial |
| Thy possessions are all naught |
| Which on earth did you to men exhibit |
| Therefore shall it be |
| Than to thee were all earth’s riches! |
| Bestowed them for the Lord himself |
| Thou were at a beginning |
| A bird, a fish in the sea, or a beast of the earth |
| Traversing the fields, a brute without understanding |
| Yet in the waste of creatures, the fiercest there! |
| Though thou were of worm the worst |
| Did you not become a man? |
| And answer on that great day |
| When shall the sins be exposed! |
| Then will all the world hear the deeds of men |
| What will you there on doomsday say? |
| When there shall be no joy |
| Then it shall go its way |
| Seek hell’s abyss |
| Not heaven’s joys |
| The dust shall be lie! |
| Shall drink in swarms the carcass |
| Thirsty for corruption |
| The tongue be drawn asunder |
| Into ten parts! |
| To the hungry ones for food |
| Not wisely in words converse |
| With the accursed ghost |
| To every man |
| As a memorial |
| Of mind sagacious! |
