    (continued from previous page)
    While others mad with desperation their sires homes to leave.
    Last scene of all,
    That ends this strange eventful history,
    Is second childishness and more oblivion
    Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste and sans everything.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
