In facile dreams until the qualm was drowned,

The boy went on. Through endless arches straying

With casual tread he sauntered, manly playing

At manhood lest more loss of faith betide him,

Till lo! he saw a table set beside him.

When Dymer saw this sight, he leaped for mirth,

He clapped his hands, his eye lit like a lover’s.

He had a hunger in him that was worth

Ten cities. Here was silver, glass and covers.
