And therefore he’s built on the neo-Greek plan.

An artist who’s bent on the mystical lay

Could hardly do better, at this time of day,

To give one the neo-Greek shiver.

“This is the way,” laughs the great god Pan

(Laughs as he sits by the river),

The only way, since renaissance began,

To prevent a poor god being left on the shelf:

How can one do better than “puffing one’s self?”

And he puffs, as he squats by the river.
