Anthrax
from The Boomer Bible,
Book of Ways

Chapter 15 (beginning at the 17th verse) ...What about the Bubonites, 18  Who kept right on believing, 19  And searched for new life in the midst of the slaughter, 20  Because of their faith in judgment hereafter? 21  Who refused to surrender to damn-it-all pleasure, 22  And labored to frame new questions and answers, 23  In the hope of regaining the love of their master? 24  You'd set them straight if you were there, 25  With your love of germs and sterile water, 26  But would a plague in your world of chance, 27  Give rise to a brilliant Renaissance?
