Lusts after immunity to pain.”

And rich men grown to be poor again,
And I am running to Paradise;
And many a darling wit’s grown dull
That tossed a bare heel when at school,
Now it has filled an old sock full....”

Shall still be kept with Joy by me:
This Day then, let us not be told,
That you are sick, and I grown old,”
