Come, let us pity those who are better off than we are. 
Come, my friend, and remember 
      that the rich have butlers and no friends, 
And we have friends and no butlers. 
Come, let us pity the married and the unmarried.  
 
Dawn enters with little feet 
      like a gilded Pavlova 
And I am near my desire. 
Nor has life in it aught better 
Than this hour of clear coolness 
      the hour of waking together.
Ezra Pound
