    Those who work for plant rights
    don't parse parsley
    nor bomb poppies
    nor purchase antipeople papers.

    not the papal but poplars.
    * not in the sense of ephemeral fame
    but what the people want.

Possessing all things with intensest love,
O liberty! my spirit felt thee there.
