“Hearing your words, and not a word among them
Tuned to my liking, on a salty day
When inland woods were pushed by winds, that flung them
Hissing to leeward like a ton of spray,”

Come and see my shining palaces built upon the sand.”

Jeered at by crooked children, makes his way
Through by-streets at the kindest hour of day,”
