In 1828 Franz Schubert died
The year after Ludwig van Beethoven
Schubert was a relatively young lad
From Vienna, while Ludwig was from Bonn
Though he moved to Vienna later on
Beethoven began as the new Mozart
Child prodigy, influenced by Haydn
The latter also teaching young Schubert
Strangely, these two were both less than forward
With the ladies, neither married, though tried
In Beethoven's case, dismissed as common
By Josephine, his aristo sweetheart
Schubert may have had syphilis, typhoid
Fever possibly, so soon was he gone
