Show HENRY HOLLAND win vulgarity CEASES A man who had wisdom and culture, Who could fathom the splendors of art, pilose soul was the soul of a poet, Who could play a true gentleman's part, Who had wit and who laughed at the manners That the crass and the vulgar display, With a smile of derision, sat watching A parvenu eating, one day. The man who had millions, who never Found out that his manners were bad. Who loudly and vulgarly boasted Of the big wads of money he had. Used his knife to scoop up his potatoes And chewed like a pig at a trough, While the man with the learning and culture Looked on from his corner to scoff. I TtPi Lai 11 "Hill m, t ' JZ5l When ihe man with the millions had eaten He turned to the one who was wise And loudly made offers to aid him In his pitiful struggle to "rise" Led him forth to the marts to make money And the man who had culture was proud To be seen with the one who was vulgar And to pass at his side through the crowd. |
