Protesting
The Unitarian Dr. Lee
Is pleased he does not disagree
With God on points,
— perhaps two or three.
The Presbyterian, Reverend Shreeve
Has found himself more bent to believe
From being a conservative
But the High Episcopalian Dunn
(Who is far above the common run)
Agrees with God on all Points
— but one.
The Prayer of the Geresenes
(Matt. 8:28; Mark 5:17; Luke 8:26)
The Geresenes certainly know
how to pray
In polite dignity and solemn display
And their prayer was answered
On the very same day
Now this is the substance
of what they had to say:
“We want our swine
and our demons to stay
And please, God, leave us
And go away!”
Amen.
