Robert LaSalle

René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle (; November 22, 1643 – March 19, 1687), was a 17th-century French explorer and fur trader in North America. He explored the Great Lakes region of the United States and Canada, and the Mississippi River. He is best known for an early 1682 expedition in which he canoed the lower Mississippi River from the mouth of the Illinois River to the Gulf of Mexico; there, on 9 April 1682, he claimed the Mississippi River basin for France after giving it the name La Louisiane. One source states that "he acquired for France the most fertile half of the North American continent".

Ave Maria

Oh maiden mild
Listen to a maiden's prayer
For thou cannot hear amid the wild

Ave Maria, Ave Maria
'Tis thou, can't save amid despair
We slumber safely till the morrow
Though we've by man outcast reviled
Oh maiden, see a maiden's sorrow
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child
Ave Maria, Ave Maria gratia plena
Ave ave dominus
Maria, tecum

Ave Maria
You hear me pleading 
Ave Maria 
She hears me pleading 

Ave Maria, Ave Maria
Ave Maria... Maria! 

When the sky falls down I hope it hits me
Hope you're with me
You're the little hair of the dog that bit me
When it's over we can pray on my lawn
Make a toast to the dawn 
Thank God the sky was empty
Cheers! Now I got a half full glass
Sky fell down, bottoms up to the past 
Out and into the great beyond
And out to here on my lawn with the first stone you cast
Sandstone epitaphs hide cedar caskets under fresh-laid sod 
On the other side ask me
The greener grass, the fear of God
On the other side ask me

More, give me more, when the ceiling hits the floor
More, give me more, can't teach a lion how to roar 
(Old man's lying, young man's old lamb)

Don't mind preachers
Absent-minded teachers
The Devil's linguist survives on mourning tithes 

Sing with them, be with them
Forgive but don't forget them
Wisdom doesn't preach... no, it sings
