    And but for fancies, which aver

    Athwart a plane of molten glass,

    Upon a wheel of fire, that mine own tears
    Do scald like molten lead.

    Having a glass of blessings standing by,

    Let the world’s riches, which dispersed lie,
    Contract into a span.”
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
