. Turn, Fortune, turn thy wheel, and lower the proud;   Turn thy wild wheel thro' sunshine, storm, and cloud;   Thy wheel and thee we neither love nor hate.
  Turn, Fortune, turn thy wheel with smile or frown;   With that wild wheel we go not up or down;   Our hoard is little, but our hearts are great.
  Smile and we smile, the lords of many lands;   Frown and we smile, the lords of our own hands;   For man is man and master of his fate.
  Turn, turn thy wheel above the staring crowd;   Thy wheel and thou are shadows in the cloud;   Thy wheel and thee we neither love nor hate.
