Lone Founts

by Herman Melville

  


Though fast youth's glorious fable flies,View not the world with worldling's eyes;Nor turn with weather of the time.Foreclose the coming of surprise:Stand where Posterity shall stand;Stand where the Ancients stood before,And, dipping in lone founts thy hand,Drink of the never-varying lore:Wise once, and wise thence evermore.
