The Clod and the Pebble |
| «Love seeketh not itself to please |
| Nor for itself hath any care |
| But for another gives its ease |
| And builds a heaven in hell’s despair.» |
| So sung a little Clod of Clay |
| Trodden with the cattle’s feet |
| But a Pebble of the brook |
| Warbled out these metres meet: |
| «Love seeketh only Self to please |
| To bind another to its delight |
| Joys in another’s loss of ease |
| And builds a hell in heaven’s despite.» |
