6 January*
To Stella
Than Stella, with her limpid pools,
(Whereon the poet fondly looks)
No better cure for bitter fools
And if these lines, so careless wrought,
Wring pity from her fulsome dart –
No better place than what we sought –
Then Heav’n above, for all its heart,
Demand this tribute : That the mules
(Which evermore the Christ shall cart,
As long as Gospels be our books)
May bless thee as they ever ought,
And bray this message to the cooks :
Rejoice ! Come in ! And let the feast ensue –
Dear nuptials blessed by God, and fit for you.

End-notes
* Allegedly Twelfth Night, but that seems to reshash the argument that (as it is) 1 January 2001 was the first day of the millennium...
