    'Tis a very good world we live in
    To spend, and to lend, and to give in;
    But to beg, or to borrow, or ask for our own;
    'Tis the very worst world that ever was known.

Fly away, pretty moth, to the shade
Of the leaf where you slumbered all day;
Be content read more

Fly away, pretty moth, to the shade
Of the leaf where you slumbered all day;
Be content with the moon and the stars, pretty moth,
And make use of your wings while you may.
. . . .
But tho' dreams of delight may have dazzled you quite,
They at last found it dangerous play;
Many things in this world that look bright, pretty moth,
Only dazzle to lead us astray.

In Heaven's dark hall, high up the crowd of worlds.

Where all the heaviest wrongs get uppermost.
