A fairy dust upon that multitude,

Although he feigned to take them by themselves;

His giants dignified those puny elves,

Sublime their faint applause. In short, he found

Himself still footing a delusive round,

Remote as ever from the self-display

He meant to compass, hampered every way

By what he hoped assistance. Wherefore then

Continue, make believe to find in men

A use he found not?
