    What Elysium have ye known,
    Happy field or mossy cavern,
    Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern?

You may go to Carlisle's and to Almanac's too;
And I'll give you my Head if you find such a Host,
For Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, Butter, or Toast;
How he welcomes at once all the World and his Wife,
And how civil to Folks he ne'er saw in his Life.

Be turned to gray,
What care if the night come soon!

Who bow for grace,
At the Inn of the Silver Moon.

conducting his affairs from good to better, discovered to him the
road, where he also espied an Inn. Sancho positively maintained
it was an Inn, and his master that it was a castle; and the
dispute lasted so long that they arrived there before it was
determined.

Whoe'er has travel'd life's dull round,
Where'er his stages may have been,
May sigh to think he still has found
The warmest welcome, at an inn.

In ev'ry Inn he finds a home--

Will not an Inn his cares beguile,
Where on each face he sees a smile?

Breathes rest and comfort and the many chambers
Seem full of welcomes.
