A Dialogue Between The Soul And Body - Phil Shoenfelt[00:00:00]

Written by：Marvell/Phil Shoenfelt/Shoenfelt[00:00:03]

O who shall from this dungeon raise[00:00:16]

A soul enslav'd so many ways[00:00:20]

With bolts of bones that fetter'd stands[00:00:24]

In feet and manacled in hands[00:00:28]

Here blinded with an eye and there[00:00:32]

Deaf with the drumming of an ear[00:00:36]

A soul hung up as 'twere in chains[00:00:40]

Of nerves and arteries and veins[00:00:44]

Tortur'd besides each other part[00:00:49]

In a vain head and double heart[00:00:53]

O who shall me deliver whole[00:01:11]

From bonds of this tyrannic soul[00:01:15]

Which stretch'd upright impales me so[00:01:19]

That mine own precipice I go[00:01:23]

And warms and moves this needless frame[00:01:27]

A fever could but do the same[00:01:31]

And wanting where it's spite to try[00:01:35]

Has made me live to let me die[00:01:39]

A body that could never rest[00:01:44]

Since this ill spirit it possest[00:01:48]

What magic could me thus confine[00:02:06]

Within another's grief to pine[00:02:10]

Where whatsoever it complain[00:02:14]

I feel that cannot feel the pain[00:02:18]

And all my care itself employs[00:02:22]

That to preserve which me destroys[00:02:26]

Constrain'd not only to endure[00:02:30]

Diseases but what's worse the cure[00:02:34]

And ready oft the port to gain[00:02:39]

Am shipwreck'd into health again[00:02:43]

But physic yet could never reach[00:03:01]

The maladies thou me dost teach[00:03:05]

Whom first the cramp of hope does tear[00:03:09]

And then the palsy shakes of fear[00:03:13]

The pestilence of love does heat[00:03:17]

Or hatred's hidden ulcer eat[00:03:21]

Joy's cheerful madness does perplex[00:03:25]

Or sorrow's other madness vex[00:03:29]

Which knowledge forces me to know[00:03:33]

And memory will not forego[00:03:38]

What but a soul could have the wit[00:03:42]

To build me up for sin so fit[00:03:46]

So architects do square and hew[00:03:50]

Green trees that in the forest grew[00:03:54]
