Who is the Potter, pray, and who the Pot?

The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it

Here with a Loaf of Bread beneath the Bough, / A Flask of Wine, a Book of Verse - and Thou / Beside me singing in the Wilderness- / And Wilderness is Paradise enow.

There was the Door to which I found no key; There was the Veil through which I might see

Each Morn a thousand Roses brings, you say: / Yes, but where leaves the Rose of Yesterday?

Think then you are Today what Yesterday you were - Tomorrow you shall not be less

I sometimes think that never blows so red The Rose as where some buried Caesar bled; That every Hyacinth the Garden wears Dropt in her Lap from some once lovely Head

Awake! for Morning in the Bowl of Night Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to Flight: And Lo! the Hunter of the East has caught The Sultan's Turret in a Noose of Light

Dreaming when Dawn's Left Hand was in the sky I heard a Voice within the Tavern cry: 'Awake, my Little ones, and fill the Cup Before Life's Liquor in its Cup be dry

And that inverted Bowl they call the Sky, Where under crawling coop'd we live and die, Lift not your hands to It for help for it As impotently moves as you or I

Ah, take the Cash in hand and waive the Rest.

Now the New Year reviving old Desires,/ The thoughtful Soul to Solitude retires,/ Where the White Hand of Moses on the Bough/ Puts out, and Jesus from the Ground suspires.

But still the Vine her ancient Ruby yields, / And still a Garden by the Water blows.

A Mr Wilkinson, a clergyman.

The Ball no question makes of Ayes and Noes, / But Here or There as strikes the Player goes.
