The Empyrean

Let there be joy and singing!
Gladness and Laughter shall fill
my houses.  For He is One!
		   Help me!
Look at this, I have a heart!
--and it burns with great passion!
		     Help me!
(a crowd filled with wild laughter)
What is he rambling about?
Prob'bly some shrinkward 'scapee.
Don't they have guards or something?
  Awake you sleepers, Awake!
					 Help me!
Oh, how we have lost our sight.
	Pound! Pound! Pound!
	  Who is it?
	Pound! Pound! Pound!
    I say, who's there?
	Pound! Pound! Pound!
Oh, I can't see, I can't see!
		  Peace.
		 (Laughter)
Does good like a medicine
A sad face is good for th'Heart

I swear I heard a knocking
a knocking at my front Door.
