The Garret
11 lines✦
ome let us pity those who are better off than we are.Come, my friend, and rememberthat the rich have butlers and no friends,And we have friends and no butlers.Come let us pity the married and the unmarried. Dawn enters with little feetlike a gilded Pavlova,And I am near my desire.Nor has life in it aught betterThan this hour of clear coolness,the hour of waking together.
