NaPoWriMo #11: A ovillejo
This wasn’t an official prompt, but I was looking up poetic forms and was so enchanted by the ovillejo that I had to try my hand at it.
Catechism
Who’s given rule o’er everything? The king!
Who offers prayers for most and least? The priest!
What’s offered up for all our vice? The sacrifice!
Not any mortal works suffice To cleanse the sin that man has done So we rely on God’s own Son The king, the priest, the sacrifice
