Way down in the Garden of Eden

Was Adam with Eve on his knee.

They never sat down,

But just laid around,

In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree.

There has been a dread about this military citadel which is only equalled in the regular army by the Philippine prison of Bilibid. Both are looked on as dark hell-hole dungeons for the regular soldier.
