The Nendjcants.

We are mendicants who wait
Along the roadside in the sun;
Tatters Of yesterday and shreds

And some are dotarts, who believe
And glory in the days Of old;
while some are dreanters. harping still
Upon an unknown age of gold.
but there be others, happier far,
The yagabaa dish sons of God,
Who know tie players and the flowers,
And care not how the world may plod
They, too, receive each one his day;
But their wise hearts know many things
Beyond the sating of desire,
Above the dignity OF kings.
One remember kept his coin,
And laughing Tipped it in the air;
But when two strolling pipe players
Came by, he tossed it TO the pair
Spendthrift OF JOY, his childish heart
Danced to their wild, eutlandish bars;
Then supperiess he laid him down
That night and slept heueath the stars,
BLISS CARMAN.
