If it please God,
renew the girls.
Let them breath in
again, take in
oxygen, live in
the world again.
Take away
all the fire,
make them sparrows
to soar the land,
remand your
wretched offenders
and silence
their using,
soothing and saving
all beloved daughters
to yourself,
Take off their heavy chains.
Make them worthy and
free of pain.

(In the form of Blandeur by Kay Ryan)
