My Creditors.
Oh, friends: Do I not know you? Indeed, and that I owe you.
And this too, I know, of my purse, That 'tis empty.
Not a nickel is there: its contents is air, And when it were not so, indeed it were rare.
Empty, quite empty.
And an empty purse, 'twere nearly a curse A miserable thing, to be sure.
But Till the thing can be cured, it must be endured, Of course, to be sure.
But I am not a lemon to be seized and be squeezed; Nor a nurse to be sucked, be milked and be teased As if e'en my... blood would an hunger appease.
Nay, patience, kind friend, await and endure, Till fortune shall smile, if indeed shall not laugh, My potion is the bitterest, by far, yet I will it quaff.
Meanwhile I will tramp From southernmost strand to the northernmost land. And the nickel and the dime will I seek from the hand That the nickel and the dime hath to spare For the worn and the weary who tramp o'er the land, Gray headed and faltering almost in despair.
And my purse when replenished (And my wandering is finished, ) I'll divide with my friends to be sure.
