THE BOOK OF
BUBONITES
The Plague makes Europe interesting
Chapter 5
The Plague was pretty hard to ignore,
2What with so many bodies piled up in the streets and all,
3Including the bodies of priests and nobles,
4aWhich was kind of unsettling,
5And caused a lot of Christians to start asking questions,
6bLike “What’s the use of never having any fun to speak of if we’re all just going to die of some disgusting disease?”
7And so it occurred to some of them that maybe the church didn’t have all the answers,
8And maybe it wasn’t a completely good idea that nobody knew anything about anything except what the priests said was in the Bible,
9When it would have been kind of nice to know some things about other things,
10cLike, say, medicine.
