light he is; he is lighter than vanity. His
head is light, for he has put nothing in it /;
his heart is light for it is hollow; his
pockets are light, for he has spent his
money for liquor and tobacco. The
heaviest part of his person is in his
stomach that is capacious, and crammed
with food which digests slowly because it
is picked in whisky. Analyze him. A
