Yours is not (I regret to say) the story they tell / although you howl and gash yourself / scurrying out of the tombs

where you now live. / God forces some. / God’s prophet came

to send your unclean spirit / into pigs, who ran amok. / I saw you

at the bottom of the cliff of pity / diving in pig blood— / “cleansed” now.

Thought:

“Take fortune as it falls, as one adviseth:

Yet Heywood bids me take it as it riseth,

And while I think to do as both do teach,

It falls and riseth quite beside my reach.”

Sir John Harington
