My adversaries are part and parcel of my very nature;
They cling to be as my very skin;
I cannot escape their contact.
In my rising up and my sitting down they
barnacle me.
They entice me with constant baits;
My enemy is within the citadel;
Come with almighty power and cast him out,
pierce him to death,
and abolish in me every particle
of carnal life today.
