The Circus

Come the foppish, come the fine. Come the fancy drinking wine. Come the lowly, come the poor. Come the beggars beg for more. Come the crooks, come the thieves. Come the lurkers under eves. Come the kings, come the queens. Come the royal finer beings. Come them one, come them all. Come the masses held in thrall. Come to the circus, the young and old. Come to enjoy since time untold. Come the dogs, come the cats. Come the high flying acrobats. Come the jokers, come the clowns. Come the painted smiles and frowns. Come the strange, come the freaks. Come the things which no one speaks. Come the daring, come the brave. Come the feats the people crave. Come them large, come them small. Come the performers one and all. Come to the circus, the women and men. Come to amaze time and again.
