Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD AEAEFGFG HIHJ KBK'God' is composed of letters three | A |
But if you put an 'l' | B |
Before the last it seems to me | A |

The human heart can hold | D |
Respond unto the devil's bait | C |
Of Gold | D |
- | |
When God created Gold to be | A |
For our adorning fit | E |
I little think he dreamed that we | A |
Would come to worship it | E |
But when you ruefully have scanned | F |
The chronicles of Time | G |
You'll find that lucre lends a hand | F |
To Crime | G |

So if you are a millionaire | H |
To be of Heaven sure | I |
Give every penny you can spare | H |
Unto the sick and poor | J |

And so with letters odd | K |
You can with peace of spirit spell | B |
Just GOD | K |
