After fatigue, or dusty heat; thence call’d

The Traveller’s Rest. Welcome, embower’d seat,

Friendly repose to the slow passenger

Ascending, ere he takes his sultry way

Along th’ interminable road, stretch’d out

Over th’ unshelter’d down; or when at last

He has that hard and solitary path

Measured by painful steps. And blest are they,

Who in life’s toilsome journey may make pause

After a march of glory: yet not such
