THE DANCE OF DEATH

By (AKA William Herman) Ambrose Bierce

---

[Original]

"Wilt thou bring fine gold for a payment

For sins on this wise?

For the glittering of raiment

And the shining of eyes,

For the painting of faces

And the sundering of trust,

For the sins of thine high places

And delight of thy lust?"
