SOLITUDE
According to the Tramp

Each lovelorn youth, each Jezebel,
All men of affairs, all songsters inspired,
All builders of dreams, all laborers tired,
Each solemn priest and idle swell
Have hastened to their dwelling place,
Where blaze huge logs on their hearthstones so
bright,
That troubles and cares are banished from sight,
While I trudge on from place to place.
