In the upper circles	A
Moves a famous man	B
Who has had no equal	C
Since the world began	B
He was once a broker	D
Down by the exchange	E
He is now a nabob	F
Don't you think it strange	E
	-
In his low back office	G
Near the Bowling Green	H
With his brother brokers	I
He was often seen	H
Shaving and discounting	J
Dabbling in the stocks	K
He achieved a fortune	L
Of a million ROCKS '	-
	-
Next he formed a marriage	M
With a lady fair	N
And his splendid carriage	M
Bowled about THE square	N
Where his spacious mansion	L
Like a palace stood	O
Envied and admired	P
By the multitude	Q
	-
Then he took the tour	R
Of the continent	S
Bearer of dispatches	T
From the President	U
A legation button	L
By permission wore	V
And became that worthy	W
An official bore	V
	-
Charmed with foreign countries	X
Lots of coin to spend	Y
He a house in London	L
Took a the West End	Y
Where he dwelt a season	L
And in grandeur shone	Z
But to all the beau monde	A2
Utterly unknown	Z
	-
England then was foggy	W
And society	W
Too aristocratic	B2
For his pedigree	W
So he crossed the channel	C
To escape the BLUES	C2
And became the idol	C
Of the parvenues	C2
	-
Dear delightful Paris	C2
He would often say	C2
Every earthly pleasure	D
One can have for pay	C2
Wealth gives high position	L
But when money's tight	D2
Man is at a discount	E2
And it serves him right	D2
	-
After years of study	W
How to cut a dash	F2
He came home embellished	G2
With a huge moustache	F2
Now he is a lion	L
All the rage up town	H2
And gives gorgeous parties	C2
Supervised by Brown	H2
	-
The almighty dollar	D
Is no doubt divine	I2
And he worships daily	W
At that noble shrine	I2
Fashion is his idol	C
Money is his god	J2
And they both together	D
Rule him like a rod	J2
	-
Books and busts and pictures	C2
Are with him a card	K2
While abroad he bought them	L2
Cheaply by the yard	K2
But his sumptuous dinners	C2
To a turn quite right	D2
With his boon companions	C2
Are his chief delight	D2
	-
Thee his wit and wassail	C
Like twin currents flow	C
In his newest stories	C2
Published long ago	C
His enchanted hearers	C2
Giggle till they weep	M2
As it is their duty	W
Till they fall asleep	M2
	-
	-
	-
On his carriage panel	C
Is a blazoned crest	N2
With a Latin motto	C
Given him in jest	N2
His black coach and footman	L
Dressed in livery	W
Every day at Stewart's	C2
Many crowd to see	W
	-
	-
	-
Well in upper ten dom	O2
Let him rest in peace	C2
And may his investments	C2
Cent per cent increase	C2
Though on earth for no one	L
Cares the millionaire	N
So does NOT exactly	W
His devoted heir	N
	-
	-
	-
There's a useful moral	C
Woven with my rhyme	P2
Which may be considered	P
At some other time	P2
Crockery is not porcelain	L
It is merely delf	Q2
And the kind most common	L
Is the man himself	Q2
