On all the tragic scene they stare.
One asks for mournful melodies;
Accomplished fingers begin to play.
Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,
Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.”

As that vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet;”

Through Jonathan Swift’s dark grove he passed, and there
Plucked bitter wisdom that enriched his blood.”
