Foul fish or fresh flowers?

Two fishwives of foul fish went with their wares
In bazaar all sold, back with their moneys shares

Black clouds, rain started, no time to run home
Sought shelter in a hut, besides thyme

Flowers were strewn about, fragrance in the air
The lady there a florist, sold them in the fair

The fishwives were fed well. A fine bed welcome
But no, they tossed about; sleep would not come

The fragrance of the flowers was too much for them
They thought, at last, the basket with foul fish, some
With it at their head, they lay in rest wholesome

That's us mortals with foul fun finite
We forget the full joy of God infinite
Lets wake up, behind us the dark dull night

Fishwives, road home, rain
Rest in florists home. No sleep
Fish vat at head. Snore
or
Fishwives, road home, rain
Rest in florists home. No gain
With fish vat cloud nine
