And the loud shriek of sage Minerva's fowl
Rattles around me her discordant hymn:
Old

from old walls upon me scowl--
I wish to heaven they would not look so grim;
The dying embers dwindle in the grate--
I think too that I have sate up too late:
And therefore, though 't is by no means my way
To rhyme at noon--when I have other things
To think of, if I ever think--I say
I feel some chilly midnight shudderings,
And prudently postpone, until mid-day,
Treating a topic which, alas!
