And firing for his winter warmth,

And forage for his beast.

Happier than herald-blazoned Kings,

The monarch of the moor;—

He levied taxes from the rich,—

They wring them from the poor!

With glow-worm lamp, and incense cull'd

Fresh from the bean-fields breath;

And matin lark,—and vesper thrush,

And honey-hoarded heath;—
