490 Then, in the turbulence of glee, And in the excess of amity, Says Benjamin, "That Ass of thine, He spoils thy sport, and hinders mine: If he were tethered to the waggon, 495 He'd drag as well what he is dragging; And we, as brother should with brother, Might trudge it alongside each other!" THEN IN THE TURBULENCE OF GLEE AND IN THE EXCESS OF AMITY SAYS BENJAMIN THAT ASS OF THINE HE SPOILS THY SPORT AND HINDERS MINE IF HE WERE TETHERED TO THE WAGON HE'D DRAG AS WELL WHAT HE IS DRAGGING AND WE AS BROTHER SHOULD WITH BROTHER MIGHT TRUDGE IT ALONGSIDE EACH OTHER
they fare, And with them goes the guardian pair. Now, heroes, for the true commotion, 465 The triumph of your late devotion! Can aught on earth impede delight, Still mounting to a higher height; And higher still--a greedy flight! Can any low-born care pursue her, 470 Can any mortal clog come to her? [J] No notion have they--not a thought, That is from joyless regions brought! And, while they coast the silent lake, Their inspiration I partake; 475 Share their empyreal spirits--yea, With their enraptured vision, see-- O fancy--what a jubilee! What shifting pictures--clad in gleams Of colour bright as feverish dreams! 480 Earth, spangled sky, and lake serene, Involved and restless all--a scene Pregnant with mutual exaltation, Rich change, and multiplied creation! This sight to me the Muse imparts;--485 And then, what kindness in their hearts! What tears of rapture, what vow-making, Profound entreaties, and hand-shaking! What solemn, vacant, interlacing, As if they'd fall asleep embracing!  THEM AND DRUNK OR SOBER HE MAY STEER THEM SO FORTH IN DAUNTLESS MOOD THEY FARE AND WITH THEM GOES THE GUARDIAN PAIR NOW HEROES FOR THE TRUE COMMOTION THE TRIUMPH OF YOUR LATE DEVOTION CAN AUGHT ON EARTH IMPEDE DELIGHT STILL MOUNTING TO A HIGHER HEIGHT AND HIGHER STILL A GREEDY FLIGHT CAN ANY LOW BORN CARE PURSUE HER CAN ANY MORTAL CLOG COME TO HER NO NOTION HAVE THEY NOT A THOUGHT THAT IS FROM JOYLESS REGIONS BROUGHT AND WHILE THEY COAST THE SILENT LAKE THEIR INSPIRATION I PARTAKE SHARE THEIR IMPERIAL SPIRITS YEA WITH THEIR ENRAPTURED VISION SEE O FANCY WHAT A JUBILEE WHAT SHIFTING PICTURES CLAD IN GLEAMS OF COLOUR BRIGHT AS FEVERISH DREAMS EARTH SPANGLED SKY AND LAKE SERENE INVOLVED AND RESTLESS ALL A SCENE PREGNANT WITH MUTUAL EXALTATION RICH CHANGE AND MULTIPLIED CREATION THIS SIGHT TO ME THE MUSE IMPARTS AND THEN WHAT KINDNESS IN THEIR HEARTS WHAT TEARS OF RAPTURE WHAT VOW MAKING PROFOUND ENTREATIES AND HAND SHAKING WHAT SOLEMN VACANT INTERLACING AS IF THEY'D FALL ASLEEP EMBRACING
