Neighbor hateful
brings to court defile the tree
upon your land they point an eye...
Across this world this tree is known....
wisp of beauty elegance in thee
is made of grace...tree
in trust with acre heart uncommon...
so unknown...
Judge of law thus brought before
this question to decide....
ever more..
Neighbor to the Judge points out..
mean and black of soul is she
to coal...
branch of tree hangs
leavened over fence...
carved in stone.... the law does read...
prune it from my sight it needs...
my right I so impose to thee...
Armor all the land can't see...
spoken soft by you....
Beauty pruned forever goes.. all know...
golden is its sight removed from all...
Twelve.hundred years of wisdom
gone as dust......
Judge has wisdom equal to...
Sight of beauty's soul..
rights the heart in right of tree...
What next path is brought to you...
decide....
