Objection!
What about snakes?
[PANGLOSS]
Snakes!
'Twas snake that tempted mother Eve
Because of snake we now believe
That though depraved
We can be saved
From hellfire and damnation
(Because of snake's temptation!)
If snake had not seduced our lot
And primed us for salvation
Jehovah could not pardon all
The sins that we call cardinal
Involving bed and bottle!

Now onto Aristotle!

Objection!
What about war?
[PANGLOSS]
War!
Though war may seem a bloody curse
It is a blessing in reverse
When canon roar
Both rich and poor
By danger are united!
(Till every wrong is righted!)
Philosophers make evident
The point that I have cited
'Tis war makes equal -- as it were --
The noble and the commoner
Thus war improves relations!
[ALL]
Now onto conjugations!
