Hence that fantastic wantonness of woe,
       &nbspO Youth to partial Fortune vainly dear!
To plunder'd Want's half-shelter'd hovel go,
       &nbspGo, and some hunger-bitten infant hear
       &nbspMoan haply in a dying mother's ear:
Or when the cold and dismal fog-damps brood
O'er the rank church-yard with sear elm-leaves strew'd,
Pace round some widow's grave, whose dearer part
       &nbspWas slaughter'd, where o'er his uncoffin'd limbs
The flocking flesh-birds scream'd! Then, while thy heart
       &nbspGroans, and thine eye a fiercer sorrow dims,
Know (and the truth shall kindle thy young mind)
What Nature makes thee mourn, she bids thee heal!
       &nbspO abject! if, to sickly dreams resign'd,
All effortless thou leave Life's commonweal
       &nbspA prey to Tyrants, Murderers of Mankind.
