There is one sin: to call a green leaf grey, / Whereat the sun in heaven shuddereth. / There is one blasphemy: for death to pray, / For God alone knoweth the praise of death.
There is one creed: 'neath no world-terror's wing / Apples forget to grow on apple-trees. / There is one thing is needful -- everything -- / The rest is vanity of vanities.
