"So-", said the attorney,
"On my request, the young bard
was sentenced, because of immoral writings, by the judges
to seven months in prison." -
- And you're pleased about that!?"
"But certainly!" spoke he, "naturally!
Immorality is certainly a sin!"
"Tell me the reasons behind this!"
I yelled in an increasing rage,
"On the contrary, it is beneficial and good!
Rape, theft, slander, perjury and murder
Those are sins that you can see instantly.
Yet the so-called immorality,
The holy well, the procreating force,
That the universe recreates daily,
That endows only salvation and causes no one sorrow.
I am prepared to be charged,
Yet tell me one thing, Mr. Lawyer,
For what, then, is Morality necessary?" -
He balked, but composed himself quickly.
"For what," he shouted after a short period,
"For what is Morality necessary?
Morality is essential on earth,
Because otherwise everything would be immoral!"
