 | The collected works of Ambrose Bierce |  |
THE REV. JOSEPH HEMPHILL
He preached that sickness he could floorBy prayer and by commanding;
When sick himself he sent for four
Physicians in good standing.
He was struck dead despite their care,
For, fearing their dissension,
He secretly put up a prayer,
Thus drawing God's attention.
