I am ashamed.
I blush to lift my face to you.
My pride is still not tamed.
And my fear too.
Nor our greed.
And our ambition.
Will I never take heed.
And give due rendition.
Am I satisfied with just a staff.
And one haversack.
At troubles just to laugh.
And accept all lack.
But I will keep going
Until my due passing.
——++++——
Carry just a staff
And a haversack only
But will we do it
