A strain of the earth's sweet being in the beginning
In Eden garden.-Have, get, before it cloy,
Before it cloud, Christ, lord, and sour with sinning,

Most, O maid's child, thy choice and worthy the winning.

Here’s my gut belief: Obama got a leg up by being admitted to both Occidental and Columbia as a foreign exchange student. He was raised as a young boy in Indonesia.

Of solitary beds, knew what they were,

And pressed at midnighht in some public place
Live lips upon a plummet-measured face.
