| The beach was crowded Pausing now and then | B |
| He groped and fiddled doggedly along | C |
| His worn face glaring on the thoughtless throng | C |
| The stony peevishness of sightless men | B |
| He seemed scarce older than his clothes Again | B |
| Grotesquing thinly many an old sweet song | C |
| So cracked his fiddle his hand so frail and wrong | C |
| You hardly could distinguish one in ten | B |
| He stopped at last and sat him on the sand | D |
| And grasping wearily his bread winner | E |
| Stared dim towards the blue immensity | D |
| Then leaned his head upon his poor old hand | D |
| He may have slept he did not speak nor stir | E |
| His gesture spoke a vast despondency | F |
