It has been said, that anywhere,
The biggest fool afloat,
Is he who makes a rocking-chair
Of some one else's boat:
But equal with him in the race,
The eggs of woe to hatch,
Is, in unknown or known disgrace,
The fool that drops the match.
The biggest fool afloat,
Is he who makes a rocking-chair
Of some one else's boat:
But equal with him in the race,
The eggs of woe to hatch,
Is, in unknown or known disgrace,
The fool that drops the match.
