A little bread—a crust—a crumb—
(Redirected from A little bread — a crust — a crumb —)
A little bread — a crust — a crumb —
A little trust — a demijohn —
Can keep the soul alive —
Not portly, mind! but breathing — warm —
Conscious — as old Napoleon,
The night before the Crown!
A modest lot — A fame petite —
A brief Campaign of sting and sweet
Is plenty! Is enough!
A Sailor's business is the shore!
A Soldier's — balls! Who asketh more,
Must seek the neighboring life!
