The poet best shows his empathy with the failed man in the lines

1. "The broken voice, the withered neck; The coat worn out with care."
2. "And something crumbled in his brain; When his half million went."
3. "When he looks in the face; Of one who might so easily; Have been in Finzer’s place."
4. "Familiar as an old mistake; And futile as regret."
