162. IN HIM I SEE A RASCAL

When he gives
His birthless and deathless sermon,
   In him I see a superlative rascal.

   When he offers
The message of Love divine,
   In him I see an unparalleled rascal.

   When he distributes
The Life of the Absolute Supreme,
   In him I see the transcendental rascal.
