With Mayflowers on our swords and shields

We'll learn to babble o' green fields,

Like Falstaff, whom good humor yields

A place still in its charity.

Visions will come at times—I note

One with a cool white delicate throat—

Of names that shine on men remote,

And dreams of high endeavoring.

Care not for these, nor care to roam

Ulysses o'er the beckoning foam.
