Pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow,
Raze out the written troubles of the brain,
And with some sweet oblivious antidote
Cleanse the fraught bosom of that perilous stuff
Which weighs upon the heart?”

Find wealthlet no imposter heap;
Weave robeslet not the idle wear;
Forge armsin your defence to bear.”
