[Gm] _ _ _ _ After [Eb] he had journeyed, and his feet were sore, [Cm]
and he was tired, he [G] came upon an orange
grove, [F] and he rested. _ _
[Bb] _ _ And he [Cm] lay in the cool, and [Eb] while he rested, he took to himself an
orange and tasted [Gm] it, _ [Bb] and [Eb] it was good.
_ [Cm] And he felt the earth to his spine, and he asked, _
[Eb] and he saw the [F] tree above him, _ [Gm] and the stars, [Dm] and the veins in the leaf, _ [Gm] and the light, _
and [Dm] the balance, and he saw _ magnificent perfection. _
Whereon he thought of himself in balance,
[Eb] and he knew he was. _

he thought of those he angered, for he was not [Cm] a violent man,
and he [Eb] thought of those he [G] hurt, for he [F] was not a cruel man, _
[Bb] _ and he thought of those he
frightened, [Cm]
for he was not an evil man.
_ [Eb] _
And he understood, [Gm] _ he understood [Eb] himself.
Upon
this he saw that when he [Cm] was of anger, or knew hurt, or [Bb] felt fear, it was because he
was not [F] understanding.
_ And he [Gm] learned compassion, _ _ [Dm]
and with his eye of compassion [Gm] he saw his
enemies, like unto himself.
[Gm] _ _ And he learned [Dm] love, _ _ _ and then [Bb] he was [Eb] answered. _ _ _
