SEEN ON THE SIDE
BY HENRY. EDWARD WARNER
Who SScr.


One with the gift OF prophecy looked far with
dreamful eyeu.
Consulted crystals, studied palms. surveyed
the deepest skics.
Said words above curl OF smoke. saw visions
in glass.
Then said; BY all the gods, these things must
surely come to pass"
And they who heard him trembled. i'll at ease
for several days,
And then forgot. and severally went their old
accustomed ways
So spake the prophets. so spake Noah.
clarion Daniel spoke.
And when the fear had passed. behold the
warning was joke
And in what land or in what cline. wherever
prophet speaks.
Who hears stands fearful for time. for days.
mayhap for weeks.
But in the end. and swiftly, too, they all for
Sunicien, is the evil OF each prophets drcst
day!
And | have heard. and YOU have heard, and
they have heard who read.
The words of prophets many times unrolled
some fateful screed
And we have all stood trembling, lest tho
prophecy come true
But one nights sleep has treasured them US.
and me and you.
From all OF which I do conclude. Of the
worldly mob.
That at its best the prophets is a mighty
thankless job
