Can Wisdom be put in a silver rod?

Or Love in a golden bowl?

8 lines
Thomas Gray·1716–1771
eneath those rugged elms, that yew-tree's shade,Where heaves the turf in many a mouldering heap,Each in his narrow cell forever laid,The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep. The breezy call of incense-breathing morn,The swallow twittering from the straw-built shed,The cock's shrill clarion or the echoing horn,No more shall rouse them from their lowly bed.
