Make Thee Another Self
Cf. Shakespeare, Sonnet 10
I thought I heard you saying it was a pity...I never had any
children. But you're wrong. I have. Thousands of them. Thousands of them...and

-Mr. Chips in Goodbye, Mr. Chips
After the Order of Saint
Joseph, all men are fathers
Commanded by God to
protect all children
Permitted by God to
protect all children
Empowered by God to
protect all children
After the Order of Saint
Joseph, all men are teachers
With fishin’ rod and book and
whittlin’ knife
With garden and plow and fixing
what needs to be fixed
With clean and manly speech,
example, and work
All men have children,
thousands of them, because
After the Order of Saint
Joseph, all men are fathers
