Empty and smelling of the iris root

The Tuscan grated o'er them to recruit

Her wasted wits. Palma was gone that day,

Said the remaining women. Last, he lay

Beside the Carian group reserved and still.

The Body, the Machine for Acting Will,

Had been at the commencement proved unfit;

That for Demonstrating, Reflecting it,

Mankind—no fitter: was the Will Itself

In fault?
