That man should listen when his mate sings;
But the true male never yet walked
Who liked to listen when his mate talked.”

And manners, climates, councils, governments,
Myself not least, but honored of them all—
And drunk delight of battle with my peers,
Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy.
I am a part of all that I have met;”

When well-apparelled April on the heel
Of limping winter treads.”
