First Line: As I walk'd by my self
Last Line: The self-same thing will be
Subject(s): "william Iii, King Of England (1650-1702);
As I walk'd by myself,
And talk'd to myself,
Myself said unto me,
"Look to thyself,
Take care of thyself,
For nobody cares for thee.'
I answer'd myself,
And said to myself
In the self-same repartee,
"Look to thyself
Or not look to thyself,
The self-same thing will be.'
