I thought of Hector dragged againAnd saw cruelty even to the slain
I thought of Edison that night And saw the first of man made light
I thought of Dravid on his day And saw a heroic man at play
I thought of bodies strewn in dust And saw the curse of Satan's lust
I thought of Gaudi's filigree And saw the fun of idiosyncrasy
I thought of a man's walk to salt And saw him call us to exhalt
I thought of Joan tied to a stake And saw that souls can never break
