'Tis the Sorrow of the Man
Joy's recollection from an early birth,
Times of poverty are at hand,

Times of poverty are at hand,
Exaltation overruled,
'Tis the sorrow of the man.
Hoping, praying for escape,
Everlasting fears elate,
Laughing at our life's last breath,
For all is marked upon man's slate.
