THE POWER OF DECEIT

"Anyone entrusted with power will abuse it if not also animated with the love of truth and virtue, no matter whether he be a prince, or one of the people." Jean de la Fontaine

THE POWER OF DECEIT

Be him prince or pauper

One we cannot truly trust

If he's a deceitful, smiling imposter

In chaos he will thrust us

Only with truth can a leader stand proud

One with virtue should we choose

With a liar given clout

He surely will abuse it

One who lies to take the reins

Uses deceit to get the keys

Will hold his people in disdain

And rule as he will please
