 All's over, then; does truth sound bitter / As one at first believes? / Hark, 'tis the sparrows' good-night twitter / About your cottage eaves!

 Ambition is not what man does... but what man would do.

 And after April, when May follows, / And the whitethroat builds, and all the swallows!

 And gain is gain, however small

 And let them pass, as they will too soon, / With the bean-flowers' boon, / And the blackbird's tune, / And May, and June!

 And nobody calls you a dunce, / And people suppose me clever: / This could but have happened once, / And we missed it, lost it for ever.

 And that's what all the blessed evil's for.

 And the muttering grew to a grumbling; / And the grumbling grew to a mighty rumbling;/ And out of the houses the rats came tumbling.

 And the sin I impute to each frustrate ghost/ Is - the unlit lamp and the ungirt loin.

 And, Robert Browning, you writer of plays,/ Here's a subject made to your hand!

 Another Boehme with a tougher book / And subtler meanings of what roses say.

 Any nose may ravage with impunity a rose

 As for the grass, it grew as scant as hair / In leprosy.

 As is your sort of mind, so is your sort of search: You'll find what you desire.

 At last awake / From life, that insane dream we take / For waking now.
