Excerpt from Verses, Wise or Otherwise
Though outwardly a gloomy shroud,
The inner half of every cloud
Is bright and shining:
I therefore turn my clouds about,
And always wear them inside out
To show the lining.
Our idols' feet are made of clay;
So stony-hearted critics say
With scornful mockings:
My images are deified
Because I keep them well supplied
With shoes and stockings.
My modus operandi this -
To take no heed of what's amiss;
And not a bad one:
Because, as Shakspere used to say,
A merry heart goes twice the way
That tires a sad one.
