Young Night-Thought

by Robert Louis Stevenson
 All night long and every night, 
When my mama puts out the light, 
I see the people marching by, 
As plain as day before my eye. 

Armies and emperor and kings, 
All carrying different kinds of things, 
And marching in so grand a way, 
You never saw the like by day. 

So fine a show was never seen 
At the great circus on the green; 
For every kind of beast and man 
Is marching in that caravan. 

As first they move a little slow, 
But still the faster on they go, 
And still beside me close I keep 
Until we reach the town of Sleep.

 Darn! It was plain as day
The scurvy knaves had left me out . . .
 Oh was I mad? I'll say.

Then all at once I sensed the clue;
 'Twas simple, you'll allow . . .
The book I held was Who WAS Who -
 Oh was I glad - and how!
