Lyrics
The divine in spirit hath
In every creature that hath breath
Respiration
Tender croppes and the
Smalla foulas all plants and animoulas
Which have the breath of life no
But the breathing once begun can have
No end not not till the very end
Life is what lives
Takes and gives
Exchanging poisons for the freshness needed to go on
Those poisons freshness
To another one
