For three score years and five
did Nant
tithe and tithe and tithe.
To Church and God and Priest
did Nant
tithe and tithe and tithe.
Not once in three score years
and five
did prayers yield a boon,
Not once in three score years
and five
did even fateful goddess smile,
And now that Nant's full three
score years and five
do finally come to pass, the tithing
finally ends.
