Go and catch a falling star, Field of astronomy
Get with child a mandrake root, Field of alchemy
Tell me where all past years are,

Teach me to hear mermaids singing, Field of mythology
Or to keep off envy’s stinging,
And find Beginning in medias res
What wind Dramatic quality of the poem
Serves to advance an honest mind.
