Your Life shall chaffer in the market-place,
A merchant trading in the goods of grief.
Your Life shall chaffer in the market-place,
A merchant trading in the goods of grief.
Your Life shall bend and o'er his shuttle toil,
A weaver weaving at the loom of grief.
Your Life shall moil i' the ground, and plant his seed,
A farmer foisoning a huge crop of grief.
Your Life shall sweat 'twixt anvil and hot forge,
An armorer working at the sword of grief.
Your Life shall go to battle with his bow,
A soldier fighting in defence of grief.
