THE FEVER OF AMBITION.
But quiet to quick bosoms is a hell. And there hath been thy bane; there is a fire And the motion of the soul which will not dwell Tti its own narrow being. but aspire Beyond the fitting medium of desire. And but once kindled, quenchless evermore. Prevs upon high adventure, nor can tire Of aught but rest; a fever at the com. Fatal to him who bears, to all who ever bore.—Byron.
