Sleep calm, though all night long the famished troop

Snuff round and scratch against their crazy huts.

These evil thoughts are monsters, and will flee.

Par. May you be happy, Festus, my own friend!

The superseders of your nobler aims,

Though ordinary and harmless stimulants,

Will ne'er content you....

Par. Hush! I once despised them,

But that soon passes. We are high at first
