We have crept upon this new year once more.
Yet Time has not forgotten the envoy at the door.
His time must be kept, as most fateful things are;
For if it weren't for him we should surely ask for more.
Yes, his blade is kept sharp from the subjects that he reaps.
However do not fear his presence for the company he keeps.
In the Evening its a sinner. On Sunday it's a saint.
Even kings are called to humility strong men are caused to faint.
Yes, all will be brought down to the humble earth worms home;
Through this silent, stalking, envoy and his ever soothing tone.
"Hush now, sleep now; you have nothing whatsoever to fear?”
Just as long as your works before this time were justified, clean, or clear.
I hear them now; these voices from the grave, "Please work now my child there is such little time to save!"
For when the envoy cometh there can be nothing left to say.
Let this envoys meeting be your great and not dreadful day.
