When I came back to Fleet Street, / Through a sunset nook at night, / And saw the old Green Dragon / With the windows all alight, / And hailed the old Green Dragon / And the Cock I used to know, / Where all good fellows were my friends / A little while ago;
I had been long in meadows, / And the trees took hold of me, / And the still towns in the beech-woods, / Where men were meant to be.
