"The Beggar asks with loyal Persistence"- The motion of a beggar asking for money is similar to the church during offering. Both need money (money is just one example) to survive. The difference is in the motives of the givers.
"For the bag is cursed with lusting indifference"- The bag (church) is "cursed" with greed (not limited to greed but also sin, as the bag not only symbolizes money but the whole church).
"That one would come to fulfill existence"- That the body of christians would unit to fulfill their role as "fishers of men."
"And skew an age old resistance"- In fulfilling the role of a christian that they would eternally support their church is every need.
It's also interesting to see how the beggar and the church can seem to sometimes change places.
