A wedge of gold – security.
Silver coinage – some currency.
A coat from Babylon warped it up.
Paltry things thus did him corrupt,
Foolish loss of eternity.

Ole Achan saw, coveted, took;
Became a bad name in the good Book.
Coveting is against God’s law,
Though the sin was not that he saw.
Watch – Do not take that second look. –eab, 11/20/05
Written in eastern Ontario (Frontenac County) while pastoring with the Pilgrims.
