Wherewith to charm the eyes of pretty maids,

And more he needed not for happiness.

What should he do with Aaron’s priestly mantle

You still must hang about him to his surfeit?

And of himself he had no other thought

Than “Does it suit me well?” But others deemed him

Straight from the very moment it was donned

The second Head of Israel; and you

Had swift success himself so to befool

That his puffed mind must think him first and sole.
