                  Ballad�此�The Troubadour 



    A TROUBADOUR he played Without a castle wall�察�Within�察�a hapless 

maid Responded to his call。 

     ;Oh�察�willow�察�woe is me� �Alack and well´a´day� �If I were only free I'd 

hie me far away� ─�

    Unknown       her   face  and   name�察   �But   this  he  knew    right  well�察 �The 

maiden's wailing came From out a dungeon cell。 

    A hapless woman lay Within that dungeon grim ´ That fact�察�I've heard 

him say�察�Was quite enough for him。 

     ;I will not sit or lie�察�Or eat or drink�察�I vow�察�Till thou art free as I�察�Or I 

as pent as thou。; 

    Her tears then ceased to flow�察�Her wails no longer rang�察�And tuneful in 

her woe The prisoned maiden sang�此�

     ;Oh�察�stranger�察�as you play�察�I recognize your touch�察�And all that I can 

say Is�察�thank you very much。; 

    He seized his clarion straight�察�And blew thereat�察�until A warden oped 

the gate。 ;Oh�察�what might be your will�拭─�

     ;I've  come�察   �Sir  Knave�察   �to  see  The   master   of  these  halls�此 �A   maid 

unwillingly Lies prisoned in their walls。;' 

    With barely stifled sigh That porter drooped his head�察�With teardrops 

in his eye�察 �A many�察�sir�察─�he said。 

    He   stayed   to   hear   no   more�察  �But   pushed   that   porter   by�察 �And   shortly 

stood before SIR HUGH DE PECKHAM RYE。 

     SIR HUGH he darkly frowned�察 �What would you�察�sir�察�with me�拭─�The 

troubadour he downed Upon his bended knee。 

     ;I've come�察�DE PECKHAM RYE�察�To do a Christian task�察�You ask me

     ;Release   these   maidens�察  �sir�察  �Whom   you   dominion   o'er   ´   Particularly 

her Upon the second floor。 

     ;And if you don't�察�my lord; ´ He here stood bolt upright�察�And tapped a 

tailor's sword ´ ;Come out�察�you cad�察�and fight� ─�

     Ballad�此�Ferdinando And Elvira�察�Or�察�

                     The Gentle Pieman 



                                       PART I。 



       At a pleasant evening party I had taken down to supper One whom I 

will call ELVIRA�察�and we talked of love and TUPPER�察�

    MR。 TUPPER and the Poets�察�very lightly with them dealing�察�For I've 

always been distinguished for a strong poetic feeling。 

    Then we let off paper crackers�察�each of which contained a motto�察�And 

she listened while I read them�察�till her mother told her not to。 

    Then she whispered�察 �To the ball´room we had better�察�dear�察�be walking�察�

If we stop down here much longer�察�really people will be talking。; 

    There   were   noblemen   in   coronets�察  �and   military   cousins�察  �There   were 

captains by the hundred�察�there were baronets by dozens。 

    Yet   she   heeded   not   their   offers�察  �but   dismissed   them  with   a   blessing�察�

Then she let down all her back hair�察�which had taken long in dressing。 

    Then   she   had   convulsive   sobbings   in   her   agitated   throttle�察  �Then   she 

wiped her pretty eyes and smelt her pretty smelling´ bottle。 

     So I whispered�察      �Dear ELVIRA�察�say�察 � what can the matter be with 

you�拭�Does anything you've eaten�察�darling POPSY�察�disagree with you�拭─�

    But spite of all I said�察�her sobs grew more and more distressing�察�And 

she tore her pretty back hair�察�which had taken long in dressing。 

    Then she gazed upon the carpet�察�at the ceiling�察�then above me�察�And she 

whispered�察 �FERDINANDO�察�do you really�察�REALLY love me�拭─�

     ;Love you�拭─�said I�察�then I sighed�察�and then I gazed upon her sweetly ´ 

For I think I do this sort of thing particularly neatly。 

     ;Send   me   to   the Arctic   regions�察  �or   illimitable   azure�察  �On   a   scientific 

goose´chase�察�with my COXWELL or my GLAISHER� �

     ;Tell me whither I may hie me ´ tell me�察�dear one�察�that I may know ´ Is 

it up the highest Andes�拭�down a horrible volcano�拭─�

    But she said�察 �It isn't polar bears�察�or hot volcanic grottoes�此�Only find 

out who it is that writes those lovely cracker mottoes� ─�



                                       PART II。 



       ;Tell  me�察  �HENRY       WADSWORTH�察          �ALFRED       POET     CLOSE�察    �or 

MISTER TUPPER�察�Do you write the bon bon mottoes my ELVIRA pulls 

at supper�拭─�

    But   HENRY   WADSWORTH   smiled�察  �and   said   he   had   not   had   that 

honour�察�And ALFRED�察�too�察�disclaimed the words that told so much upon 

her。 

     ;MISTER   MARTIN   TUPPER�察  �POET   CLOSE�察  �I   beg   of   you   inform 

us�察─�But my question seemed to throw them both into a rage enormous。 

    MISTER CLOSE expressed a wish that he could only get anigh to me�察�

And MISTER MARTIN TUPPER sent the following reply to me�此�

     ;A fool is bent upon a twig�察�but wise men dread a bandit�察─ � Which I 

know was very clever�察�but I didn't understand it。 

     Seven weary years I wandered ´ Patagonia�察�China�察�Norway�察�Till at last 

I sank exhausted at a pastrycook his doorway。 

     There   were   fuchsias   and   geraniums�察  �and   daffodils   and   myrtle�察  �So   I 

entered�察�and I ordered half a basin of mock turtle。 

    He was plump and he was chubby�察 �he was smooth   and he was   rosy�察�

And his little wife was pretty and particularly cosy。 

    And     he   chirped   and   sang�察  �and   skipped    about�察  �and   laughed    with 

laughter hearty ´ He was wonderfully active for so very stout a party。 

    And I said�察 �O gentle pieman�察�why so very�察�very merry�拭�Is it purity of 

conscience�察�or your one´and´seven sherry�拭─�

    But he answered�察 �I'm so happy ´ no profession could be dearer ´ If I 

am not humming 'Tra� �la� �la��' I'm singing 'Tirer�察�lirer��' 

     ;First I go and make the patties�察�and the puddings�察�and the jellies�察�Then 

I make a sugar bird´cage�察�which upon a table swell is�察�

     ;Then   I   polish   all   the   silver�察  �which   a   supper´table   lacquers�察  �Then   I 

write the pretty mottoes which you find inside the crackers。; ´ 

     ;Found at last� ─�I madly shouted。         ;Gentle pieman�察�you astound me� ─�

Then I waved the turtle soup enthusiastically round me。 



                                           20

    And I shouted and I danced until he'd quite a crowd around him ´ And 

I rushed away exclaiming�察 �I have found him�              �I have found him� ─�

    And I heard the gentle pieman in the road behind me trilling�察 �'Tira�察�

lira��' stop him�察�stop him�      �'Tra� �la� �la��' the soup's a shilling� ─�

    But    until  I  reached    ELVIRA'S      home�察   �I  never�察 �never    waited�察  �And 

ELVIRA to her FERDINAND'S irrevocably mated� �
