Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Bet Set in Verse

The devil plays a betting game,

Winning the bets the devil's goal.

So bet Johnny boy with the aim

Of winning Johnny boy's sweet soul.

The bet was who could fiddle best,

Johnny boy or the devil, so

The two would fiddle in a test,

And both would fiddle a good show.

Johnny boy would bet his soul, and

Fiddle of gold the devil bet.

They each took their fiddle in hand,

And the fiddler's contest was set.

This bet made in song early versed.

Who won and cheered, who lost and cursed?
