Page 4 - But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.
Page 3 - But country folks who live beneath The shadow of the steeple ; The parson and the parson's wife, And mostly married people ; Youths green and happy in first love, So thankful for illusion ; And men caught out in what the world Calls guilt, in first confusion ; And almost every one when age, Disease, or sorrows strike him, Inclines to think there is a God, Or something very like Him.
