Did not the Lion roar
            of His kingdom plain:

What is right is left?
            You must be born again.

What is left is right?
            You must seek as a child, 

What is up is down?
            And be least all the while. 

What is down is up?
            You must forgive and forget,

What is in front is behind?
            And become poor without regret.
 
What is behind is in front?
            And unless you die to these,

Know that that which is seen, is not,
            And that which is not, most certainly is.*
 

*Please pardon the strained rhyme.

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
