THE GOLDEN CLOWN

There was a rich man lived in Dober Town.
And he was master of a thousand hands.
They sDun his gold for him,
Their lives were sold for him,
Their loves were bound to him with bloody hands
And those who knew him called him Mister Brown
And he was not ordinary man
He had an education of a sort
lie called his miI-hands bores
The females dirty whores
And plumed himself on being a good sport
And Of his passions made profitable plan.
0, Brown was very rich, and very proud
And prouder for a sorrow that he had
son that laughed all day.
A son whose witless way
Was death and broken wonder for the lad
And ne walked always with an unseen crowd.
The Golden Clown. the neighbors knew him all.
Knew him for golden through their own cold crime.
And more than Duber Town
knew him for a Clown,
Born to the purple, and some there were hetirae
Had sung with him matmans madrigal
'Why is the world about me drab, and
Am golden and Clown upon q Hill?
Come out from Dober Town,
Il call you, ], your Clown,
Il who have laughter for a beast to kill"
And some there We're who heard, and wondered why
And one there was, a gardener. who came,
And found the Clown asprawl upon the lawn.
Now he had eyes for none,
Now he was quite alone,
New without laughter, rigid in the dawn
And none had heard him crying like a flame
Trying to find the night less ominous
To a poor Clown whose wit had come with death
And for Mister Brown,
Boss Cf Dober Town.
Hes still sport though getting short of breath,
And that's what happens to the run Of us.
