With scarce a thought beyond the hum-drum round,
I did my decent job and earned my pay;
Was averagely happy, I'll be bound.

Putting on smiles to lure the lewd passenger,
Smiling while anguish gnaws at thy heavy heart;

In the stand they are crushing for room,
Like midge-flies they swarm on the heather,
They gather like bees on the broom;

A weak and sinful creature, as regards my daily walk

Apart from its voracious appetite for mammalian blood

Betwixt the world destroyed and world restored,
If Adam aught perhaps might interpose;
