Farewel to Unsubstantial Joyes，Ye Gilded¹ Nothings，Gaudy Toyes，Too long ye have my Soul misled，Too long with Aiery Diet fed：But now my Heart ye shall no more Deceive，as you have heretofore：for when I hear such Sirens sing，Like lthica's fore－warned King，With prudent² Resolution I Will so my Will and Fancy tye，That stronger to the Mast not he，Than I to Reason bound will be：And though your Witchcrafts strike my Ear，Unhurt，like him，your Charms I'll hear.

    永别了，空洞的欢乐，你是涂金的虚无，华丽的玩具，太久，你使我的灵魂迷途，太久，给它空气般的米黍：但是我的心不会再被你迷惑，虽然以前你曾经迷惑过我：当我听到这样的塞壬歌唱，像伊斯卡受到警告的国王，以谨慎克制的决心，我将坚决缚住我的意志和想像，比他把自己缚于桅杆更紧，我将使自己钳制于理性：虽然你的巫术撞击我的耳鼓，无动于衷，像他，我倾听你的法术
