SIN-NYMS, 5o



Lines Based on Synonyms for the Seven Deadly Sins
SEVEN DEADLY SINS: envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath

Pride (o): vaingloriousness

Vaingloriousness is hard to bear—
But seems to blossom everywhere—

In towns and cities I can see
And, yes, from sea to shining sea.

Yet, glory’s evanescent, so
Much vanity is silly, Yo.
