To lure him from this natural strife and care,

With vague Utopian plan!

“Here’s wealth and joy—why seek for any change?

Why labor for a more elaborate life?

As if God could not his own world arrange

Without our fretful strife!

“Those who complain of savagery as low

Are merely proven lazy, and too weak

To live by skilful hunt and deadly blow;

It is their needs that speak.
