THE NERVOUS MAN

Isaac Taylor Headland translation

A NERVOUS disposition

He had when he was born,

To hurry to a fair one day,

He rose at early morn;

Put on his wife's green trousers

And started to the sale,

A riding on a donkey—

His face turned toward its tail.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
