this is the limit of no secret day
when clouds depart and all enjoy the view
a sudden moment when each may renew
their sagging heart and then go on their way
more certain now of what's set in the play
than all the wise when first wild flower blew
but knowledge is not all that can fall due
nor is hard money the best mode to pay
here is the rule be silent and go forth
not caring how the errand shall turn out
only expect to see an empty plate
on your return from harrowing the north
you shall discover matters are less stout
yet all will be well on the proper date
