PERPLEXT no more with Where or How or Why,
Thy easy fingers to the Shaft apply,
Content to send away a fair straight Ball,
Though follow’d earthward by the naked Eye.
XXXIII
AND if the Ball you drive, the Shaft you press,
End in what all begins and ends in—Yes;
Thank Heav’n you play To-day as Yesterday
You play’d—To-morrow you shall not do less.
