Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood

Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
Whelms us to the tired world where tasseling corn,
Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
Rot on the vine: in the land were we born.”

The light and careless livery that it wears
Than settled age his sables and his weeds,
Importing health and graveness.”
