The poet's declaration in his teeth?—

Pause to employ what—since it had success,

And kept the priest her servant to the end—

We must presume of energy enough,

No whit superfluous, so permissible?

The goal is gained: day, night, and yet a day

Have run their round: a long and devious road

Is traversed,—many manners, various men

Passed in review, what cities did they see,

What hamlets mark, what profitable food
