But then the joys, the pleasures and delights,

That the well-cultivated mind enjoys;

The appreciation of the beautiful

In nature and in art; the boundless range

Of pleasure and of knowledge books afford;

The constant change of incident and scene

All these the savage knows not and enjoys not.

Still we may ask, “Does stern necessity

Compel that this great good must co-exist
