What about snakes?<br>
<br>
PANGLOSS:<br>
Snakes!<br>
'Twas snake that tempted mother Eve<br>
Because of snake we now believe<br>
That though depraved<br>
We can be saved<br>
>From hellfire and damnation<br>
(Because of snake's temptation!)<br>
<br>
If snake had not seduced our lot<br>
And primed us for salvation<br>
Jehova could not pardon all<br>
The sins that we call cardinal<br>
Involving bed and bottle!<br>

Objection!<br>
What about war?<br>
<br>
PANGLOSS:<br>
War!<br>
Though war may seem a bloody curse<br>
It is a blessing in reverse<br>
When canon roar<br>
Both rich and poor<br>
By danger are united!<br>
(Till every wrong is righted!)<br>
<br>
Philosophers make evident <br>
The point that I have cited<br>
'Tis war makes equal -- as it were --<br>
The noble and the commoner<br>
Thus war improves relations!<br>
<br>
