The Fullers Guild

It's God again. As I speak this first passage of the Modern English text of The Fullers Play and not Middle English (because it's to damn hard to read sorry but it had to be said.)

"Adam and Eve, this is the place
That I have given you of my grace
To have your dwelling in.
Herbs, spices, fruit on tree,
Beasts, birds, all that you see
Shall bow to you herein
This place is Paradise
Your joys shall here begin
And if that you are wise
You shall remain within."

Finally, the end of the play. it's getting close to signing off of Facebook
and have learned a lot the past hour or so. It's been fun. Let's tie the play back home shall we?

"Look that you do as you have said
With all you have, now hold you paid
For here is wealth at will
This tree that bears the fruit of life,
Should touch, but leave it still.
Because this is the tree
Of knowing good and ill
This fruit you must let be
Or speed yourself to kill

Therefore, this tree that I outtake
Now guard it truly for my sake
that nothing shall come near
For all things at your will shall be
I outtake nothing but this tree
To feed your flesh. Now hear!
Here shall you lead your life
With pleasures that are dear
Adam and Eve you wife
My blessing have you here."

Okay, you two. Are you finally going to let me speak up?

"We do as you command
We have no other need
This fruit still shall there stand
O Lord, which you forbid." (I guess)

Well, God, wonderful truly wonderful. But, coming after me telling me I shall not have the right to come hither to the all-knowing, fruit-bearing tree of truth. Here's what I have to say about that, Bitch, but, I definitely see the consequences. So thank you.

"Alas, Lord, that we should do so ill
Your blessed bidding we shall fulfil
Both in thought and deed
We shall not touch this tree nor bough
Nor yet the fruit that there does grow
That we our flesh might feed."

There we go, Now, let's come hither and forsake on.

"Then love me, with intentions clear
To my commandments, give good ear
And do, obediently
Of all the fruit in Paradise
Take you thereof in every wise
And eat it happily
But the tree of good and ill
The day you eat of this
Yourselves you surely kill
And you shall lose your bliss

Man, for your need all things are made
To you all homage shall be paid
By all beneath the sky
On Earth I make you lord of all
All beasts to you shall be as thrall
Your kind shall multiply
Therefore this tree alone
Adam, this prohibit I
No nearer to it come
If you do then you shall die."

OMG, God, LMAO right now, I am so humbled that I may dwell nay live in your presence. keep it up. WTG.

Why thank you Eve, that is so wonderful for you to say. Here's my next passage:

"All your will you here shall have.
As you please, to eat or save
Fish, fowl, or meat
And to take at your own will
All the things that herein dwell
Your subjects they shall be
Adam, of more and less
The lord I grant you be
This place, that worthy is,
Keep it in honesty."

Thank you God, for the first passage of your monologue. It means a lot to me and my hubby Adam and this wonderful paradise we are living in, please continue.

Adam, Thank you, God, for that wonderful introduction to a spectacle of mine and Eve's personal recollection of Eden. So, on with the show.

God Here. I have come to Facebook for an important quest, to express in the most sincere way possible The Fullers Play. Yet I do forsake that it is not an ideal platform to express oneself. But come hither, I do proclaim that because it is what I call Digital Platform Week. So, with no further adieu. I bring the wonderful (yet eerie) Facebook mockumentary of The Fullers Play.
