The Unpopular Dolorous Way.

The world has little time for Dante— Who quotes his gloomy lines? The lays That bring us gloom are noon forgotten. We seek to shun 'the dismal ways: To him who gives us mirth we gladly Return our patronage and praise. The world has little time for trouble From which it may escape. Be glad And men will turn aside to greet you. To hear of Joys you may have had. We coldly turn away from people When they approach us, looking sad.
