Of Thy Own Nature

you, that nature gives
gives not... but is this your nature?????
you, that nature gives
gives yourself your nature

and you that gives another their nature
through the slaying of fools
the buthcery of the times
whether it be body or reason
do so and name their self-treason

for to take or give anothers nature
is but to make that your own
though the whip be in the slavetrader's hand
it is that whip and that hand which makes him the slave.
