Mouthed in the squares, broad in the public eye:

And whose backs break, whose lives are mauled, after

It all falls flat? His tender airs chill me—

As thoughts of sleep to a man tiptoed night-long

Roped round his neck, for sleep means death to him.

Oh, he is kind to us!

Your safe teeth chatter when they hear a step:

He left them yours because his cunning way

Would brag the wrong against his humane act

By Pharaoh; so gain more favour than he lost.
