About the stakes of labor close and true.

Then next, with intimate prophetic laughter,

He taught the Man, in His own image blest,

To pluck and wagon and to—all the rest!

To tread the grape and work his vintage after.

So did God make us, making good wine makers;

So did He order us to rule the field

And now by God are we not only bakers;

But winners also sacraments to yield;

Yet most of all strong lovers, Praised be God!
