Soldier
Brave loyal soldier
Uriah the Hitite..
Lost in Battle for Basheba..
as she bathed in moonlight.
smitten by lust
Morality to dust..
Uriah a loyal subject to
his king,
David planned his downfall
to covert what he did not own,
Bathsheba..
The oldest story. .
How to hide this conception.. to entice Uriah from his duty
and he'd think he was the father..of invention..Β
But such a noble soldier..
Uriah didn't falter and returned to his
death in a losing battle unsupported
by David's order of withdrawal ..
and the lovers re united..
and God looked down and smited
the Israelites,
For taking what did not belong to them,
Let not the sins of the parents fallΒ to children,Β the wisdom of Solomon is born... from the loins of sin..
oh Uriah... Brave soldier, I pray you got your reward in Heaven

I think I read this story from the children's bible as a child, and re discovered it with the name of Uriah.. robbed of his life by lust of another... Xx Shakespeare got his ideas from the old testements I think.Β
Really cool.Β
