Rhyme Scheme: A BBCCDD EE

FOR MR G F WATTS'S PICTUREA
-
Mammon is this of murder and of goldB
To day to morrow and ever from of oldB
Th' Almighty God and King of every landC
Man 'neath his foot and woman 'neath his handC
Kneel prostrate he 'tis meant to symboliseD
Steals our strong men and our sweet women buysD
-
O rather grind me down into the dustE
Than choose me for the vessel of thy lustE
