“Softly sweet in Lydian measures
Soon he soothed his soul to pleasures.
‘War’, he sung, ‘is toil and trouble;
Honour but an empty bubble.
Never ending, still beginning,
Fighting still, and still destroying;
If the world be worth thy winning,
Think, O think it worth enjoying.
Lovely Thais sits beside thee,
Take the good the Gods provide thee.’”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)

The garden mouse eats what he can;
We will not grudge him seeds and stocks,
Poor little timid furry man.”
