...revels, in the happy fetes,
When cheeks are flushed, and glasses gilt and pearled
With the sweet wine of France that concentrates
The sunshine and the beauty of the world,
Drink sometimes, you whose footsteps yet may tread
The undisturbed, delightful paths of Earth,

She and the lady in the cape
Are suspect, thought to be in league;
Therefore the man with heavy eyes
Declines the gambit, shows fatigue,
Leaves the room and reappears
Outside the window, leaning in,
Branches of wistaria
Circumscribe a golden grin;

In natural concentration, as they take their part
In the salvation of the natural world.

Coming to Bethlehem; on the grassy hillside
Where their flocks are grazing, the shepherds gesticulate

Of years in the future, the donor, his wife,
And their children are kneeling, looking: everything
