Oscar Wilde: The Ballad of Reading Gaol0. The Ballad of Reading Gaol (continued)A prison wall was round us both,
In Debtors' Yard the stones are hard,
Or else he sat with those who watched
The Governor was strong upon
And twice a day he smoked his pipe,
But why he said so strange a thing
Or else he might be moved, and try
With slouch and swing around the ring
We tore the tarry rope to shreds
