  Nature and art asunder seem to fly,

    Yet sooner than we think find common ground;

    In place of strife, harmonious songs resound,

  And both, at one, to my abode draw nigh.

  In sooth but one endeavor I descry:

    Then only, when in ordered moments' round

    Wisdom and toil our lives to Art have bound,

  Dare we rejoice in Nature's liberty.

  Thus is achievement fashioned everywhere:

    Not by ungovernable, hasty zeal

      Shalt thou the height of perfect form attain.

  Husband thy strength, if great emprize thou dare;

    In self-restraint thy masterhood reveal,

      And under law thy perfect freedom gain.
