A bean-stripe; also apple-eating

"Why from the world," Ferishtah smiled, "should thanks

Go to this work of mine? If worthy praise,

Praised let it be and welcome: as verse ranks,

So rate my verse: if good therein outweighs

Aught faulty judged, judge justly! Justice says:

Be just to fact, or blaming or approving:

But generous? No, nor loving!

"Loving! what claim to love has work of mine?

Concede my life were emptied of its gains

To furnish forth and fill work's strict confine,

Who works so for the world's sake he complains

With cause when hate, not love, rewards his pains.

I looked beyond the world for truth and beauty:

Sought, found and did my duty."
