John Dryden - Mankind

John Dryden - Mankind

Men are but children of a larger growth; br Our appetites are apt to change as theirs, br And full as craving too, and full as vain; br And yet the soul, shut up in her dark room, br Viewing so clear abroad, at home sees nothing; br But, like a mole in earth, busy and blind, br Works all her folly up, and casts it outward br To the world's open view.
