    But in come canine Paradise
    Your wraith, I know, rebukes the moon,
    And quarters every plain and hill,
    Seeking its master. . . . As for me
    This prayer at least the gods fulfill
    That when I pass the flood and see
    Old Charon by Stygian coast
    Take toll of all the shades who land,
    Your little, faithful barking ghost
    May leap to lick my phantom hand.

There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
But when we are certain of sorrow in store
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and sisters I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.

Both mongrel, puppy, whelp and hound,
And curs of low degree.
