vex my heart with fancies dim:
He still outstripped me in the race;
It was but unity of place
That made me dream ranked with him.
And SO may Place retain US still,
And he the much beloved again,
A lord of large experience, train
To ripper growth the mind and will {:
And what delights can equal those
That stir the spirits inner deeps,
When one that loves, but knows not, reaps,
A truth from one that loves and knows?
