text_original: The play is done, — the curtain drops, Slow falling to the prompter's bell ; A moment yet the actor stops, And looks around, to sav farewell. SABBATH: WORSHIP: CREED. 257 It is an irksome word and task; And, when he 's laughed and said his say, He shows, as he removes the mask, A face that 's anything but gay.
