Than once again within those arms to lay.

"These are her men and women; this the sight

That greets me daily when I pass their homes;

It is enough to love, it throws some light

Over the gloomiest hours; the fancy roams

No more to Italy or Greece; the loams

Whereon we tread are sacred by the lives

Of those who till them, and our comfort thrives.

"Here might one pass his days, content to be

The witness of those spectacles alway;
