When Darby saw the setting sun
He swung his scythe, and home he run,
Sat down, drank off his quart and said,

"My work is done!" retorted Joan,
"My work is done! Your constant tone,
But hapless woman ne'er can say
'My work is done' till judgment day."

And I the while, the sole unbusy thing,
Nor honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing.

And the sooner it's over the sooner to sleep,
And good-bye to the bar and its moaning.

I am nothing and to nothing tend,
On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,
Man's noblest works must have one common end,
And nothing crown the tablet of his name.
