The Ball no Question makes of Ayes and Noes,
But Right or Left as strikes the Player goes;

More from this book
Ah Love! could you and I with Him conspire.
A book, a woman, and a flask of wine:
The three make heaven for me; it may be thine
Is some sour place of singing cold and bare —
But then, I never said thy heaven was mine.
p. 32

Arrest the yet unfolded Roll of Fate,
And make the stern Recorder otherwise
Enregister, or quite obliterate!
