    Grows, lives, and dies in single blessedness.

    In a bowl to sea went wise men three,
    On a brilliant night of June:
    They carried a net, and their hearts were set
    On fishing up the moon.

    The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.
