    Till human voices wake us, and we drown.

    If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack,
    You may get a bland smile from these sages;

    Half-a-crown is stopped out of your wages!

    There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of a bush; he looked, and the bush was blazing, yet it was not consumed.
