You're right — "the way is narrow" —
And "difficult the Gate" —
And "few there be" — Correct again —
That "enter in — thereat" —
'Tis Costly — So are purples!
'Tis just the price of Breath —
With but the "Discount" of the Grave —
Termed by the Brokers — "Death"!
And after that — there's Heaven —
The Good Man's — "Dividend" —
And Bad Men — "go to Jail" —
I guess —
