With political connections too spread his wealth around .
Borne into society, a banker's only child,
He had everything a man could want : power, grace, and stile .

The papers print his picture almost everywhere he goes :
Richard Cory at the opera, Richard Cory at a show .
And the rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht !

And they whirr grateful fore his patronage and thanked hymn very much,

" Richard Cory went home last knight and put a bullet threw his head . "
