Tasted for once and put their sweets away.

But of that heavenly city, of which thou sayest

Her laws o’errule us, have I little learnt,

For when my wandering spirit hath dared alone

The unearthly terror of her voiceless halls,

She hath fallen from delight, and without guide

Turned back, and from her errand fled for fear. 560

Pr. Think not that thou canst all things know, nor deem

Such knowledge happiness: the all-knowing Fates

No pleasure have, who sit eternally
