Within his head there are thoughts, so many
most are irrelevant and thus ten a penny
though rare amongst his brain's detritus
a thought whirls round just like St. Vitus
yet as he struggles this thought's recall
he knows not if it be grand, or small.

And then it's gone and is no more
remembers not he, nor is he sure
thus he returns to comfort's while
wanders round his country pile
his life of wealth is all for naught
soundness of mind cannot be bought.
