            HOW HARD FATE GRIPS
            
            The snake and elephant are caged;
            
            The moon and sun must meet eclipse;
            
            The prudent are in strife engaged
            
            With poverty. How hard fate grips!

Tawney

            
            When sun and moon eclipsed I see,
            
              And elephants in bonds,
            
            And wise men vexed with poverty;
            
              I own, my soul desponds.
