Against the outstretch of your very arms

And legs i' the sunshine moralists forbid!

What would you have? Just speak and, there, you see!

You 're supplemented, made a whole at last,

Bacon advises, Shakespeare writes you songs,

And Mary Queen of Scots embraces you.

Thus it goes on, not quite like life perhaps,

But so near, that the very difference piques,

Shows that e'en better than this best will be—

This passing entertainment in a hut
