WRITTEN IN NAPLES

are what we are made; each following day

Is the Creator of our human mould

Not less than was the first; the all-wise God

Gilds a few points in every several life,

And as each flower upon the fresh hillside,

And every colored petal of each flower,

Is sketched and dyed, each with a new design,

Its spot of purple, and its streak of brown,

So each man's life shall have its proper lights,
