“You alone in Europe are not ancient oh Christianity
The most modern European is you Pope Pius X
And you whom the windows observe shame keeps you
From entering a church and confessing this morning
You read the prospectuses the catalogues the billboards that sing aloud

There are the 25 centime serials full of murder mysteries
Portraits of great men and a thousand different headlines
