Once, I was lashed with a miscreants tongue,
Twice, I bowed to a tyrants lungs
Three times over did I pray to God
Four times more I was herded with a prod
Five be a count for the names been called
Six be a number I was forced enthralled
Seven sins deadly I was taught to look away
Eight words spoken in the course of a day
Nine, then ten, I was lashed once again
Vengeance my drive, Reason I will send
Twice, I bowed to a tyrants lungs
Three times over did I pray to God
Four times more I was herded with a prod
Five be a count for the names been called
Six be a number I was forced enthralled
Seven sins deadly I was taught to look away
Eight words spoken in the course of a day
Nine, then ten, I was lashed once again
Vengeance my drive, Reason I will send
