That they are hooking me, I know,
or else would not fly round me 50,
And as they come and as they go,
Scream one and all: "Caha, ha. ha''
For since a child they've known my life
From boyhood's dreams 10 manhood s
strife.
Till now with cares Of business rife
They see me weary. sad, and worn,
with Just enough OF courage left
To tell me how I've been bereft.
And with a human heartlessness
They laugh my latest grief To scorn.
