He dreamed OF wealth in after years
And. M each flock increases,
He thought to ply the nimble shears
And bag the golden fleeces.
For Walter was lad Of will
With eve lambs and wether;
And Walter. somehow, managed still
To pull himself together.
Then Walter knowing not dismay,
Said, Shepherd though am,
i may M we'll be killed for
Black sheep, M for a lamb !"

But left their tales behind them.
oh bid the stricken dcars go weep,

SO runs the world away!
