Edwin Arlington Robinson - Two Men lyrics

There be two men of all mankind   That I should like to know about; But search and question where I will,   I cannot ever find them out. Melchizedek he praised the Lord,   And gave some wine to Abraham; But who can tell what else he did   Must be more learned than I am. Ucalegon he lost his house   When Agamemnon came to Troy; But who can tell me who he was —   I'll pray the gods to give him joy. There be two men of all mankind   That I'm forever thinking on: They chase me everywhere I go, —   Melchizedek, Ucalegon.
