Happened long ago.
Theatre full of sadness
For a long forgotten show.

Just to let it go on by
Till you stop and wonder
Why you never wondered why.”

As fits an universal woe,
Let the long, long procession go,
And let the sorrowing crowd about it grow,
And let the mournful martial music blow;
The last great Englishman is low.”
