Strange that I did not know him thenA
That friend of mineB
I did not even show him thenA
One friendly signB
-
But cursed him for the ways he hadC
To make me seeD
My envy of the praise he hadC
For praising meD
-
I would have rid the earth of himE
Once in my prideF
I never knew the worth of himE
Until he diedF
