I am always looked down on and am mocking myself, They see me as a lesser man, A man of wit who is lost in humour and fear, They can’t see me as a man behind my mask of a jester. I am no less a man than they, I live, I love like any other man. I am always looked down on and am mocking myself, They see me as a lesser man, A man of wit who is lost in humour and fear, They can’t see me as a man behind my mask of a jester. I am no less a man than they, I live, I love like any other man. I am just like them — I am only a man of wit, not a man of grand words like they are. No one knows my mind or my heart. They cannot see me as a man because of my robes, my hat, and my staff.
