Jim Dixon Lyr Req: a poem called 'Mr. Nobody' (33) RE: Lyr Req: a poem called 'Mr. Nobody' 25 Aug 14


The poem "Mr. Nobody" is also in The Child's Speaker edited by Charles Northend (New York and Chicago: A. S. Barnes and Company, 1870), page 45.

The words are nearly identical to those I posted above, except that it uses the spelling "Mr. Nobody" rather than "Mr. No-bod-ee."

No author is named.

I think the attribution to Elizabeth Prentiss is likely correct.
