To greet the wsyfareT below

They know no touch OF poverty

suffering from cold and could not see even him.
He suffered that day in ways that he had not known
existed. He sent her by separate messengers bushe
of roses, pounds of candy and a beautiful book
and never thought that he might be OVERRIDING it.

Our childhood friends! what days we used to lie
Beneath the deep, cool shade of maple-trees,
And spreading open our little knees

Where Cuinevere was waiting Now. ah, me!

Upon my table, and my friends are free
