Housman The time you toon youA town the race We chaired you through the maAket-pla.ee; Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder-high. Today, the Toad all runners come, Shoulder-high we bring you home, And set you at your threshold down, Townsman o£ a 6tiller town. Smart lad, to slip betimes away From fields where glory doer not stay, And early though the laurel grom It withers quicker than the rote. Eyes the shady night has shut Cannot see the record cut, And Alienee sounds no worse than cheers A ter earth haA Atopped the ears. Now you will not Awell the rout ladA that wore their honors out, Runners whom renown outran And the name died before the man. So set, before Its echoes ade, The ileet f,oot on the aM o Ahade, And hold to the low tlntel up The a till-defended challenge cup. And round that early-laurelled head {.Hill ilock to gaze the AtrengthleAA dead, And $lnd unwlthered on ItA curls The garland briefer than a girl’s.
