Jesus would never use government surrogates to force the people to help others.

Tobacco surely was designed to poison, and destroy mankind.

At sea let the British their neighbours defy --

The French shall have frigates to traverse the sky.

Red serpents, fiery forms, and yelling hags, Fit company for mad adventurers.

But fame is theirs -- and future days

On pillar'd brass shall tell their praise;

Shall tell -- when cold neglect is dead -

These for their country fought and bled.

They saw their injured country's woe.

They saw their injured country's woe;

The flaming town, the wasted field;

Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;

They took the spear, -- but left the shield.

If nothing once, you nothing lose,

For when you die you are the same;

The space between is but an hour,

The frail duration of a flower.

Tobacco surely was designed

To poison, and destroy mankind.
