Was there a time when dancers with their fiddles
In children's circuses could stay their troubles?
There was a time they could cry over books,
But time has sent its maggot on their track.

What's never known is safest in this life.

have cleanest hands, and, as the heartless ghost
Alone's unhurt, so the blind man sees best.
