Psyche

Psyche

The butterfly the ancient Grecians made
The soul`s fair emblem, and its only name--
But of the soul, escaped the slavish trade
Of mortal life !--For in this earthly frame
Ours is the reptile`s lot, much toil, much blame,
Manifold motions making little speed,
And to deform and kill the things whereon we feed.
