Poet Analysis

First Line: TIS VERY FIT THE AMBROSIA OF THE GODS
Last Line: Upon their humble fare
Subject(s): FOOD & EATING;

'Tis very fit the ambrosia of the gods
Should be a weed on earth. As nectar is
The morning dew with which we wet our shoes
For the gods are simple folks and we should pine
Upon their humble fare.
