    I walked a mile with Pleasure,
    She chattered all the way;
    But left me none the wiser,
    For all she had to say.
    I walked a mile with Sorrow
    And ne'er a word said she;
    But, oh, the things I learned from her
    When Sorrow walked with me!

Some sprite begotten of a summer dream.
