Boldly, bodily heirs, not mistaken,
Beauty becoming, beholden our form
To the Man beyond all men, partaken
Of in the wheat and wine. We may transform,
Transfigured through a pace deliberate:
The brain first and then the body exalts
Or just simple hearts and a child like start.
Art portrays tender women without faults;
Gentle kings, knights courageous - bannerets.
Subjects, slaves and servants, full servitude,
Spinning lambswool on hand spun spinnerets.
For the world to come - certain certitude
That God will raise their fleshly bodies high
In the manner of Christ’s who will not die.
