Royalty
Reading edition
If I should meet a king or queen Upon the street some day, Do you think that I'd be frightened? Why, I'd know just what to say. "Your reverend majesties," I'd say, And humbly bow the knee, "I am your very humble swain, And will you honor me?" The king would strike my shoulder With a sword of passing might, He'd lift me grandly to my feet, He'd say, "Arise, O Knight!" Oh, I would not be frightened, For I've seen kings galore, Don't you think it's just to learn of them That playing cards are for?
