Seventy-Four and Twenty
Here goes a man of seventy-four,Who sees not what life means for him,And here another in years a scoreWho reads its very figure and trim.
The one who shall walk to-day with meIs not the youth who gazes far,But the breezy wight who cannot seeWhat Earth’s ingrained conditions are.
