English poem
Cain Reformed
by Adolf Wolff (1882–1940)
Am I my brother's keeper? Yes, indeed, I keep him, aye, I keep him hard at work. I also keep the fruit of all his work And of his children's work I keep the fruit.
And when he does not keep the laws I make That give me power to keep him hard at work, I am his keeper, keeping him in jail. Am I my brother's keeper? Yes, indeed.
