Are sands upon the Red Sea shore,
Where Israel’s tents do shine so bright.”

To tend the homely slighted shepherd’s trade,
And strictly meditate the thankless Muse?
Were it not better done as others use,
To sport with Amaryllis in the shade,
Hid in the tangles of Neaera’s hair?”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
