Now the snail hath made its ring;
And the moth with snowy wing
Circles round in winding whirls,
Through sweet evening's sprinkled pearls,
On each nodding rush besprent;
Dancing on from bent to bent;
Now to downy grasses clung,
Resting for a while he's hung;
Then, to ferry oer the stream,
Vanishing as flies a dream;
Playful still his hours to keep,
Till his time has come to sleep;
In tall grass, by

Weary then he drops to bed.

Till there seems naught

Else we should crawl along the years
Labour'd with measurable joys
No greater than our life,

And as snails harden their sweat

Serious delight.

Where is that wise girl Eloise,
For whom was gelded, to his great shame,
Peter Abelard, at Saint Denis,
For love of her enduring pain,
And where now is that queen again,
Who

them to throw
Buridan in a sack, in the Seine?

and wish to

Where he studied his books, with the wrens and the rooks,
