As the old well-known footstep recrosses thine alleys,

Welcome me back to Bohemia again!

E’en yet I may baffle the duns that surround me,

E’en yet may thy street be aroused by my voice;

And when for a spree you have gathered around me,

Then turn, and call on the chief of your choice!

John J. Bosworth.

Worthy a Crown? 1876.
