    and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous
    resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by
    their ignorance the hard way.

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

Who works for money coins his very soul.
Work for the work's sake, then, and it may be
That these things shall be added unto thee.
