Orpheus

If I were King of some great land With lords and commons to command, My crown should be with justice bright Instead of jewels-and Love's light Should be the sceptre in my hand.

One law of virtue should be planned That all alike might understand The simple rule, that right is right- If I were King.

One Church should stand in God's own sight Where all who wished to worship, might, Its ministers should be a band Of soldiers with a purpose grand To put all evil thoughts to flight, If I were King.
