Obtain the bread clowns earn by sweat of brow,

And missing which, they missed of every thing—

Hence claimed pay, even at expense of life

To their own lord, so little warped (admire!)

By prepossession, such the absolute

Instinct of equity in rustic souls!

Whereas our Count, the cultivated mind,

He, wholly rapt in his serene regard

Of honor, he contemplating the sun,

Who hardly marks if taper blink below,
