Capacity to contract, a principal's plight
Agent's mental state, shining bright
Consent, the foundation, spoken or implied
A relationship built, with trust as its guide
Agency takes the stage, a legal ballet
Duties and liabilities, come what may
Principal and agent, in a dance so grand
Bound by law, across the land
Employees and contractors, roles defined
Gratuitous agents, with tasks aligned
Subagents emerge, extending the hand
Trustees with duties, at the command
Agency takes the stage, a legal ballet
Duties and liabilities, come what may
Principal and agent, in a dance so grand
Bound by law, across the land
Actual authority, express or implied
Apparent authority, where actions preside
Inherent power, a force unseen
Binding the principal, to the third party's scene
Agency takes the stage, a legal ballet
Duties and liabilities, come what may
Principal and agent, in a dance so grand
Bound by law, across the land
Contractual liability, a tangled thread
Disclosed or undisclosed, where paths are led
Tort liability, a risk to bear
Scope of employment, a burden to share
Agency takes the stage, a legal ballet
Duties and liabilities, come what may
Principal and agent, in a dance so grand
Bound by law, across the land
Fiduciary duties, a sacred vow
Loyalty and care, taking a bow
Obedience and accounting, hand in hand
Principal and agent, bound by this command
Agency takes the stage, a legal ballet
Duties and liabilities, come what may
Principal and agent, in a dance so grand
Bound by law, across the land
Agency's story, forever unfolds
In legal dramas, where truth beholds
Principal and agent, their roles entwined
A dance of rights, for all mankind
