Alas! in that unfeeling heart

Nor love nor kindliness has part;

Or chilling want, or pining care

Must brood, or comfortless despair.

Blest, who without profane alloy

Can revel in that blameless joy!

More blest, in every welcome hour,

If Spring-time smile, or winter lower,

Who round him scatter’d hears or sees

What still the excursive sense may please;
