Poëzy

J.P. Hasebroek

10.

‘However, thou art happy?’ Say not so! Thy Faith is dead, for it is buried here; Thy Love is nothing, for it does not cheer; Thy Hope a lie; thou sow'st not - shalt thou mow? Thy Piety is but a selfish scheme; Thou art but cruel, though they call thee holy; Thy worship is a fancy and a folly; And, oh! how shalt thou waken from thy dream?
