Ye call me master, and obey me not;
Ye call me light, and seek me not;
Ye call me way, and walk me not;
Ye call me wise, and follow me not;
Ye call me fair, and love me not;
Ye call me rich, and ask me not;
Ye call me eternal, and seek me not;
Ye call me gracious, and trust me not;
Ye call me noble, and serve me not;
Ye call me mighty, and honor me not;
Ye call me just, and fear me not;
If I condemn you, blame me not.
