“‘Therefore, this is what God, the Master, says:“‘Doom to the city of murder!I, too, will pile on the wood.Stack the wood high,light the match,Cook the meat, spice it well, pour out the broth,and then burn the bones.Then I’ll set the empty pot on the coalsand heat it red-hot so the bronze glows,So the germs are killedand the corruption is burned off.But it’s hopeless. It’s too far gone.The filth is too thick.
