TWO MEN
There be two men of all mankind
That I should like to know about;
But search and question where I will,
I cannot ever find them out.
That I should like to know about;
But search and question where I will,
I cannot ever find them out.
Melchizedek, he praised the Lord,
And gave some wine to Abraham;
But who can tell what else he did
Must be more learned than I am.
And gave some wine to Abraham;
But who can tell what else he did
Must be more learned than I am.
Ucalegon, he lost his house
When Agamemnon came to Troy;
But who can tell me who he was—
I'll pray the gods to give him joy.
When Agamemnon came to Troy;
But who can tell me who he was—
I'll pray the gods to give him joy.
There be two men of all mankind
That I'm forever thinking on:
They chase me everywhere I go,—
Melchizedek, Ucalegon.
That I'm forever thinking on:
They chase me everywhere I go,—
Melchizedek, Ucalegon.
