Follow, poet, follow righto the bottom of the night, With your constraining voice Still persuade us to rejoice;With the farming of a verse Make a vineyard of the curse, Sing of human unsuccess In a rapture of distress;In the deserts of the heart Let the healing fountain start, In the prison of his days Teach the free man how to praise.

W.H. Auden
