Their topsy-turvy world, you say,

Is out of all perspective? Nay,

'Tis we who look at life askew.

Dreams lose their spell; hard facts we prize

In our humdrum philosophy;

But, could we change, who would not be

A suitor for those azure eyes?

Who would not sail with fairy freight

Piloting some flat-bottomed barge—

A size too small, or else too large—
