Thelema and Macareus.
Taught by this emblem they'll relate
What's to be every mortal's fate,
Thee, Macareus,[1] though all men choose,
Though much they love thee, oft they lose;
And I'm persuaded that you dwell
With me, though this I fear to tell.
Who boasts that with thee he is blessed,
By envy oft is dispossessed;
A man should know, to make thee sure,
How to live happy while obscure.
- ↑ The late M. Vadé has done his readers the justice to believe that they know, that Macareus is happiness, and Thelema desire or will.
