Cease to call him sad and sober	A
Merriest of months October	A
Patron of the bursting bins	B
Reveler in wayside inns	B
I can nowhere find a trace	C
Of the pensive in his face	C
There is mingled wit and folly	D
But the madcap lacks the grace	C
Of a thoughtful melancholy	D
Spendthrift of the seasons' gold	E
How he flings and scatters out	F
Treasure filched from summer time	G
Never ruffling squire of old	E
Better loved a tavern bout	F
When Prince Hal was in his prime	G
Doublet slashed with gold and green	H
Cloak of crimson changeful sheen	H
Of the dews that gem his breast	I
Frosty lace about his throat	J
	-
Scarlet plumes that flaunt and float	J
Backward in a gay unrest	I
Where's another gallant drest	I
With such tricksy gaiety	I
Such unlessoned vanity	I
With his amber afternoons	K
And his pendant poets' moons	K
With his twilights dashed with rose	L
From the red lipped afterglows	L
With his vocal airs at dawn	M
Breathing hints of Helicon	N
Bacchanalian bees that sip	O
Where his cider presses drip	O
With the winding of the horn	P
Where his huntsmen meet the morn	P
With his every piping breeze	Q
Shaking from familiar trees	Q
Apples of Hesperides	Q
With the chuckle chirp and trill	R
Of his jolly brooks that spill	R
Mirth in tangled madrigals	Q
Down pebble dappled waterfalls	Q
Brooks that laugh and make escape	S
Through wild arbors where the grape	S
	-
Purples with a promise of	T
Racy vintage rare as love	T
With his merry wanton air	U
Mirth and vanity and folly	I
Why should he be made to bear	U
Burden of some melancholy	I
Song that swoons and sinks with care	U
Cease to call him sad or sober	A
He's a jolly dog October	A
