For—waste of tissue! What doctor will dare
Tell his poor patients so? I'll put my tin on him!
Rest? Recreation? Pick-up? Change of air?
All question-begging fudge-phrases of sophistry!
Let city-toilers who're fagged or "run down,"
Autumnal quiet (in home or in office), try;
Not "out of town."
Out of town? Where is the term that's claptrappier?
Means out of temper, or out of your mind.
Boot-black or old crossing-sweeper's far happier,
