Youth of delight! come hither 快乐的青年，到这里来，

　　And see the opening morn, 来看这正在展示的曙光，

　　Image of Truth new-born. 是新生真理的意象，

　　Doubt is fled, and clouds of reason, 疑虑已溜走，理智的乌云

　　Dark disputes and artful teazing. 阴郁的争论，狡狯的嘲弄全逃遁。

　　Folly is an endless maze; 愚蠢是一条无穷尽的曲径。

　　Tangled roots perplex her ways; 盘曲的树根使道路艰险难行，

　　How many have fallen there! 有多少人在那里跌倒！

　　They stumble all night over bones of the dead; 他们整夜在死人的骸骨上蹒跚前行：

　　And feel—they know not what but care; 还觉得他们想知道的全知道，

　　And wish to lead others, when they should be led. 还想带领人当他们还要人带领。
