Let's find who to blame: br Ulrica scorned by Cedric, br Pandora and her thrice-cursed box. br br And what of cruel Helen, br fathered by Zeus, br wedded by Menelaus, br bought and sold without end br an angel on an auction block? br br One weak leap for freedom, br and she brought down Troy's walls- br though was that not already decided br with a man's apple for the gods? br br Do you see, then, I ask you, br the pattern emerging? br Why not blame mankind, society- br why not scapegoat God? br br Or don't tell a woman: br be foolish but clever br use seduction and yet virtue br act frail but be strong br br And remember when reading br that man's own hypocrisy br has covered his own sins br with his daughters' and wives'. br br For we speak little of serpents, br but often of sinners; br little of Adam br but often of Eve.
