“Denouement to denouement, he took a personal pride in the
certain, certain way he lived his own, private life,
but nevertheless, they shut off his gas; nevertheless,

nevertheless, the radio broke,
And twelve o’clock arrived just once too often,”

“I leave the governor’s office next week, and with it public life ... [which] has been on the whole a pleasant one.
