Esau
When nothing true you world torment And brother unlike brother contend To debase your hunger, and no relent To snatch at grace when all offend You met him trembling in his wide fear Submitting all he thought you wanted And gave him hugs, kisses, and your tear Who did the birth priesthood supplanted So let me be constant when met again With barren thy...
