Echo, tell me: Which men have fallen the Fall?        _All._ And what is God, who's all in all, all of?        _Love._ What should I place within the beggar's palms?        _Alms._   God made the feathers that makes the sparrow's flight        _Light._ To sinners, how appear the ways of God?        _Odd._ What has the Lord given to him who hears?        _Ears._ What do they have who see through Satan's lies?        _Eyes._ The saints who run to face the throne of grace        _Race._ Who is the greatest grandmother of the Truth?        _Ruth._ From whom descended all the thin men of Haddam?        _Adam._ Whom did the snake first practice to deceive?        _Eve._ On her I place the burden of all the blame.        _Lame._ What do I give the giver who gave the Law?        _Awe._ I invented the electron multiplier.        _Liar._
