`EARTH`S LAST PICTURE`
When `Earth�s Last Picture` is painted, And oils last stroke is dried, When oldest colors have faded, And the youngest `Critic` has died,
Then we shall rest, in Faith, we shall need it. Ah but to lie down for an eon or two, Till the MASTER of all good workmen, Put us to work once anew.
Those that were good shall be happy, They shall sit in `GOLDEN CHAIRS` Then we shall splash at a tin league of canvas, With brushes of camel�s hairs,
We shall find real SAINTS to draw from, MAGDALENE, PETER, and PAUL.
Almighty GOD, The `GREAT MASTER� shall praise us, And only HE, shall offer blame, As we work for an age at sittings, Working not for love of money, Nor shall we work for fame.
We each work for the `Joy` of the working, Each in his `Separate Star`, Shall draw things as he sees it, For The GOD OF ALL THINGS,--- AS THEY REALLY ARE!!!!
