SONGS OF CREATION: 3 by HEINRICH HEINE

First Line: I MADE FOR MY GLORY AND EDIFICATION
Last Line: FOR NOUGHT BUT MY OWN DELIGHT I INTENDED.
Subject(s): CREATION;
I MADE for my glory and edification
Men, lions, and oxen, and sunlight splendid;
But calves, cats, monkeys, and each constellation
For nought but my own delight I intended.
