The Impudent "I" (10/10)

Oh! Thou, Being of unique expansiveness!
The sweet Kalpaka Wishing Tree
That unfailing yieldeth blossoms of divine compassion.
My Father of triple eye!
Instead of loving Thee,
Am I to fall into the infatuation net
Of cunning damsels of dagger-like look and dark tresses
And waste away my life?
