mouth.
An immense, misshapen, marvelous monster whose eye is out.
Of the terrible doubt of appearances,
Of the uncertainty after all, that we may-be deluded,
That may-be reliance and hope are but speculations after all,
That may-be identity beyond the grave is a
beautiful fable only.
May-be the things I perceive, the animals, plants,
men, hills, shining and flowing waters,
The skies of day and night, colors, densities,
forms, may-be these are (as doubtless they
are) only apparitions, and the real something has yet to be known.
A man of sense can artifice disdain,
As men of wealth may venture to go plain.
I find the fool when I behold the screen,
For 'tis the wise man's interest to be seen.
APPETITE
(See also Cookery, Eating, Hunger)
And gazed around them to the left and right
With the prophetic eye of appetite.
His thirst he slakes at some pure neighboring brook,
Nor seeks for sauce where Appetite stands cook.
L'anima mia gustava di quel cibo,
Che saziando di se, di se s'asseta.
Keen appetite
And quick digestion wait on you and yours.
Govern well thy appetite, lest Sin
Surprise thee, and her black attendant Death.
"Appetite comes with eating," says Angeston, "but thirst departs with drinking."
Epicurean cooks
Sharpen with cloyless sauce his appetite.
Read o'er this;
And after, this; and then to breakfast, with
What appetite you have.
Now good digestion wait on appetite,
And health on both!
Who riseth from a feast
With that keen appetite that he sits down?
Doth not the appetite alter? A man loves the
meat in his youth, that he cannot endure in his age.
The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness,
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
And through the hall there walked to and fro
A jolly yeoman, marshall of the same,
Whose name was Appetite; he did bestow
Both guestes and meate, whenever in they came,
And knew them how to order without blame.
