IV.

The eye with seeing is not filled,

The ear with hearing not at rest;

Desire with having is not stilled;

With human praise no heart is blest.

Vanity, then, of vanities

All things for which men grasp and grope!

The precious things in heavenly eyes

Are love, and truth, and trust, and hope.
