 of judgment to the
spring-head, the originals of beauty, of nature's unequall'd composition, above
all the imitation of art, or the reach of wealth to pay their price.
    But every thing must have an end. A motion made by this angelic youth, in
the listlessness of going off sleep, replac'd his shirt and the bed-cloaths in a
posture that shut up that treasure from longer view.
    I lay down then, and carrying my hands to that part of me in which the
objects just seen had begun to raise a mutiny that prevail'd over the smart of
