    Youth dreams a bliss on this side of death.
    It dreams a rest, if not more deep,
    More grateful than this marble sleep;
    It hears a voice within it tell:
    Calm's not life's crown, though calm is well.
    'Tis all perhaps which man acquires,
    But 'tis not what our youth desires.

As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him,
so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the
