In villages from which their childhood's cameSeeking Necessity, they had been taughtNecessity by nature is the same,No matter how or by whom it be sought.
The city, though, assumed no such belief,But welcomed each as if he came alone,The nature of Necessity like griefExactly corresponding to his own.
And offered them so many, every oneFound some temptation fit to govern him;And settled down to master the whole craft
Of being nobody; sat in the sunDuring the lunch-hour round the fountain rim;And watched the country kids arrive, and laughed.
