I must admit I may be preferential to Ochs as it was the first song I heard. I was very sick as a small child and my mother would read this poem to me daily sometimes two or three times. I knew it by heart before I was seven.
   I think I even heard a recorded recitation of it by James Robertson Justice or someone with a similar voice.
   That was nearly fifty years ago. So a bit of memory lapse is acceptable.
