The smiles of love adorn,--
Man's inhumanity to man
Makes countless thousands mourn!

Man only,--rash, refined, presumptuous Man--
Starts from his rank, and mars Creation's plan!
Born the free heir of nature's wide domain,
To art's strict limits bounds his narrow'd reign;
Resigns his native rights for meaner things,
For Faith and Fetters, Laws and Priests and Kings.

And know the mortal through a crown's disguise.

Natura il fece, e poi roppa la stampa.]

Ye children of man! whose life is a span
Protracted with sorrow from day to day,
Naked and featherless, feeble and querulous,
Sickly, calamitous creatures of clay.
