    Seek not for fresher founts afar,
    Just drop your bucket where you are;
    And while the ship right onward leaps,
    Uplift it from the exhaustless deeps.
    Parch not your life with dry despair;
    The stream of hope flow everywhere--
    So under every sky and star,
    Just drop your bucket where you are.

But while one little nap he snatched,
It oped and shut. Ah! was he wise?
