    It is yours,
    And might we lay th’old proverb to your charge,

    The secret mischiefs that I set abroach
    I lay unto the grievous charge of others.

    I lay the mind’s contents
    Bare, as upon a table,
    And ask, in a time of war,
    Whether there is still
    To a mind frivolously dull
    Anything worth living for.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
