CXXII. EDUCATION.
Your education is complete, you think?Dunce that you are! and dunce you're doomed to be
As long as, dabbling on the shallow brink,
You think you're sailing on the wide, wide sea.
I've striven to know, and, finding knowledge sweet,
Have learned a hundred times as much as you,
And yet I feel I've only wet my feet,
With all broad ocean stretched before my view.
