Calls "Virtue")—for a skulking vice: mere lust

Inspired the artist when his Night and Morn

Slept and awoke in marble on that edge

Of heaven above our awe-struck earth: lust-born

His Eve low bending took the privilege

Of life from what our eyes saw—God's own palm

That put the flame forth—to the love and thanks

Of all creation save this recreant!
