The Old Cannibal 

Wild man he was, heathen in broad daylight 

Old cannibal, missionaries' delight 
Their telling how Jesus saves 
And of the Lord's golden caves 
Ate them with fork and knife, he'd seen the light

  2. I think the missionaries may have overstated their case here, Jim. Thanks for the smile and for your comments. I think the silkiness is caused by lime. Thanks. k.
