* play a E the 1st time
1st verse & 3rd verse:
"by the turnstile beckons a damsel fair
the face of melinda neath blackened hair
no joy would flicker at her eyes
brooding sadness came to a rise"
"and conceded pain in crumbling mirth
a harlot of god upon the earth
found where she sacrificed her ways
that hollow love in her face"
