THE WAY OF THE WORLD, I.
JOB died not. Still he lives and thrives ; But he must have a cat's nine lives, And with mortality dispense, If he outlive the merriment That through the town and country went Upon his dying evidence.
II.
Job died not ; but he roams afar, Away beneath some other star, An exile from his former haunts, Of which, alas, no more he vaunts. He changed his station and his name A wig he got and clothing changed THEBEECHENTREE. 47 Quite thin and lantern-like became, And as a tra...veller widely ranged ; But came not back, nor ever spoke Of that expatriating joke. And when, unknown, a monstrous tale, When he was by, was told about it, He looked, 'tis true, a little pale, But then he did not seem to doubt it.
III.
He wore a face, say half resigned, Like one who has a troubled mind, And struggles not to show it ; Who glances at you, inkling, shy, As of himself in you he'd spy A knowledge of some awful lie ; Sometimes as if he would defy Your tattling then imploringly Then doubting if you know it.
