AT THE LAST by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: LITTLE SQUIRREL IN THE TREE
Last Line: THEY ARE DUMB.
Subject(s): LOVE;

Little squirrel in the tree,
Faithless other friends to me,
Therefore to the birds and thee
Have I come.

Men have reason; ye have love --
Gift all other gifts above --
Proving what, alas, to prove
They are dumb.
