Rivalry,

No person ever gets 30 grand
But that he's often made
To fear some one will take a hand
And put him in the shade.
A trust may grow and get to be
The biggest Of the set,
And still it quakes lest II shall see
Another, bigger yet.
The man In glory reveling
Must sometimes pause and doubt.
Because another hour may bring
Another hero out.
And in each party and each clan
OF sleep there's ~oeful loss;
You'll always find another man
Who wants to boss the boss
