“But that beginning was wiped out in fear
The day I swung suspended with the grapes,

And the life I live nows an extra life
I can waste as I please on whom I please.”

Dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.

Here he lies where he longed to be;
Home is the sailor, home from sea.
And the hunter home from the hill.”
