Stop wanting to earn any thanks from anyone - Or thinking someone can prove true. Ingratitude is all. Kindness counts for nothing. No, it's even tiresome and does harm, - As I have found, whom no one pushes harder or more harshly - Than he who lately called me'one and only friend'.

Into my heart an air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those ?

That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again...
