Joseph Merrick & Issac Watts
Tis true, my form is something odd
but blaming me, is blaming God,
Could I create myself anew
I would not fail in pleasing you
If I could reach from pole to pole
or grasp the ocean with a span,
I would be measured by the soul
The mind’s the standard of the Man.
- Joseph Merrick

Or grasp the ocean with my span,
I must be measured by my soul;
The mind’s the standard of the man.
