A Man, a Chair, a Book, a Dog
A man sitting in a comfortable old chair
Reading a book by the light of a lamp
And smoking a philosophical pipe
Has thus recused himself from the burdens of rule
Without his supervision the planet still dances
Its graceful pas seul around the sun
Rulers of the earth must lead without him
And bishops must teach without his counsel
A little dog dozes before the fire
A man – he reads his book and smokes his pipe
