That place that does contain
My books, the best companions, is to me
A glorious court, where hourly I converse
With the old sages and philosophers;

Unto a strict account, and, in my fancy,
Deface their ill-placed statues.

So on he fares, and to the border comes,
Of Eden, where delicious Paradise,
Now nearer, crowns with her enclosure green,
As with a rural mound, the champain head
Of a steep wilderness.
