"In what poor country have you been,

That through the city all the day

You nothing have contrived to glean!

See how your wallet folds and bends,

Well stuffed with wind and nought beside;

Accursed is he who e'er intends

As your companion to abide."

When reached the house wherein I dwell,

And that my wife can clearly spy

My bag behind me bulge and swell,
