Good you are and wise, full circle: what to me were more outside?

Wiser wisdom, better goodness? Ah, such want the angel's wide

Sense to take and hold and keep them! Mine at least has never tried.

That thou didst curse, nay, cuff and kick—in short,

Confute the announcer? Wipe those drops away

Which start afresh upon thy face at mere

Mention of such enormity: now, speak!"
