Mich. O Aureole, can I sing when all alone,

Without first calling, in my fancy, both

To listen by my side—even I! And you?

Do you not feel this? Say that you feel this!

Par. I feel 't is pleasant that my aims, at length

Allowed their weight, should be supposed to need

A further strengthening in these goodly helps!

My course allures for its own sake, its sole

Intrinsic worth; and ne'er shall boat of mine

Adventure forth for gold and apes at once.
