Who Knows?

 They say one king is mad.
Perhaps.
Who knows? They say one king is doddering and grey.
They say one king is slack and sick of mind, A puppet for hid strings that twitch and play.
Is Europe then to be their sprawling-place? Their mad-house, till it turns the wide world's bane? Their place of maudlin, slavering conference Till every far-off farmstead goes insane?
