" So muttering, he unslung the water-flask, And drew with niggard hand their daily dole.
{Ah God ! what fierce extremes encompass life. Note yon plump Sybarite, whose moons are feasts, Whose midnight dainty banquets ! Hedged with gold. He sucks abundance from earth 's shores and seas; He drains the wine of life from jeioelled cups, And fattens well for grave-worms!
Different fares Yon child of pain that treads dry, furnaced tracts! A bove, stretch shies of fire : around him, plains, Bare, moist...ureless : beneath him, earth — his grave ! For him no rich looms play with curious skill ; No menials crook and cringe ; no tempting cates, No rare wines glisten ; at Fate's Sibyl hands He plucks desire, mistrust, hope, fear, and death ! Ah, God! what fierce extremes encompass life!) ST A TION HUNTING. 1 1 1 Now thirst, that deadly desert-foe, stalked near ; For, nestling in their flasks, alas, remained Scarce three days' water for the body's need : And Paul, though staid, and nowise fooled by dreams, Sat piecing Oscar's talk.
