At the hearth here! One who seeing, first of all,

The master's sorrow, entered gate the same,

And had the hardihood to house himself.

Did things stop there! But, modest by no means,

He took what entertainment lay to hand,

Knowing of our misfortune,—did we fail

In aught of the fit service, urged us serve

Just as a guest expects! And in his hands

Taking the ivied goblet, drinks and drinks

The unmixed product of black mother-earth,
