Copied from the Album of a Wholesale House in the City - ZaunköniG - 10.06.2007 Copied from the Album of a Wholesale House in the City It is the precious province of true thought – Of the divine creations of the mind – To live unwearied in a heard overwrought By busy intercourse with town – Mankind: Poor merchant I! whom the dull world’s trade-wind Blows ever onward on a steady sea, Feel oftentimes, mid murkiest men, refined By visitants that come alone to me. Perchance I class not with the wordly wise; But mine is not the spirit that avoids, Mid temporal dealings, thease communions strange, Albeit “disgracious to the city’s eyes,” Often I meet rare Trinculo at Lloyd’s! And Hamlet sweetly walks with me on ‘Change! |
