That unctuous, flattering Pharisaic hope,

Since none can realise your image e’er

Should fade in him; so fair, that it would seem

No wonder to me if with sudden travail

The mountains yielded me some nobler metal

Than gold and silver for your ornamenting,

Some metal long enwombed against your coming;

So fair that—ha! the knowledge that you die

Hard on another’s death, from loving die

That close upon his fore-flight you may hasten
