I now must introduce to you

Before aught else, this jovial crew,

To show how lightly life may glide away;

With the folk here each day's a holiday.

With little wit and much content,

Each on his own small round intent,

Like sportive kitten with its tail;

While no sick-headache they bewail,

And while their host will credit give,

Joyous and free from care they live.
