That crowds, and hurries, and precipitates
With fast thick warble his

Would be too short for him to utter forth
His love-chant, and disburthen his full soul
Of all its music!

delivering lectures at two and sixpence a time The lectures were unrelieved
drivel Even m his palmiest days Mr Booth had not been a particularly brilliant
lecturer, and now, when he had had his first go of delirium tremens and lived m
a daily dread of his second, what chemical knowledge he had ever had was fast
deserting him He would stand dithering in front of the class, saymg the same

Kissing with golden face the meadows green,
Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy;
Anon permit the basest clouds to ride
With ugly rack on his celestial face,
And from the forlorn world his visage hide,
Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace:
Even so my sun one early morn did shine,
With all triumphant splendour on my brow;
But out!

The door of heaven and never knew.
