They never sense Romance:
Their lives are mcludrama sheer.

And feel no throh or thrill.
And other men live quiet lives.
Yet greet each newborn day
As brave adventure that arrives
Accoutercd Tor the fray:
And ~ In every new event,
However dull or small.
They find strange magic evident
With glamour over all.
