Jacob lyrics by Phoebe Cary
He dwelt among “apartments let”
About five stories high;
A man I thought no one would get
And very few would try
A boulder, by a larger stone
Half hidden in the mud
Fair as a man when only one
is in the neighborhood
He lived unknown, and few could tell
When Jacob wasn’t free;
But he has got a wife, and O!
The difference to me!
