A relatively new endeavor (I think I've mentioned it previously) includes this sample.
God's plan made a hopeful beginning
But man spoiled his chances by sinning
We trust that the story
Will end in God's glory;
But at present, the other side's winning.
-- Oliver Wendell Holmes
Update: In comments, Rueful Red rejoins:
O Wendell, don’t be such a dope!
God’s gifts are the grounds for our hope.
His latest’s a zinger:
He’s sent us Ratzinger
Now that’s what a pope calls a pope!
