I'm nobody! Who are you?

I'm nobody! Who are you?

Are you nobody, too?

Then there's a pair of us — don't tell!

They'd banish us; you know!

How dreary to be somebody!

How public like a frog

To tell one's name the livelong day

To an admiring bog!

There is some debate about line 4 of the first verse. Some books (and sites) have....They 'd banish us, you knowwhilst others have ....They'd advertise—you know!We'll use the former until someone with the author's own handwritten journals says different.
