SINCE years ago for evermore / My cedar ship I drew to shore; / And to the road and riverbed / And the green, nodding reeds, I said / Mine ignorant and last farewell: / Now with content at home I dwell, / And now divide my sluggish life / Betwixt my verses and my wife: / In vain; for when the lamp is lit / And by the laughing fire I sit, / Still with the tattered atlas spread / Interminable roads I tread.
