    Work thou for pleasure--paint or sing or carve
    The thing thou lovest, though the body starve--
    Who works for glory misses oft the goal;
    Who works for money coins his very soul.
    Work for the work's sake, then, and it may be
    That these things shall be added unto thee.

I am nothing and to nothing tend,
On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,
Man's noblest works must have one common end,
And nothing crown the tablet of his name.

All Nature seems at work, slugs leave their lair--
The bees are stirring--birds are on the wing--
And Winter, slumbering in the open air,
Wears on his smiling face a dream of Spring!
And I the while, the sole unbusy thing,
Nor honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing.
