With drunkard-dregs, and holds his words so true

That—hear the latest oath they say he swore—

With his own fist he’d choke his very windpipe

Had he the night before in fuddled fit

Made a fool’s freakish present of the world

He dubs his own, and thereby forfeited

His right to one sole single place thereon.

Whether, then too his walk’s a zigzag waddle,

As when at night he seeks his bed, I know not;

But to my thinking, both are on all fours.
