    Miniver Cheevy, child of scorn
    Grew lean while he assailed the seasons;

    And he had reasons.

    He mourned Romance, now on the town,
    And Art, a vagrant.

    But what she meets and what she fears
    Are less than are the downward years,
    Drawn slowly to the foamless weirs
    Of age, were she to lose him.
