letra de an essay on criticism (lines 215 - 232) - george rylands
a little learning is a dang’rous thing;
drink deep, or taste not the pierian spring:
there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain
and drinking largely sobers us again
fir’d at first sight with what the muse imparts
in fearless youth we tempt the heights of arts
while from the bounded level of our mind
short views we take, nor see the lengths behind
but more advanc’d, behold with strange surprise
new, distant scenes of endless science rise!
so plеas’d at first, the tow’ring alps we try
mount o’er thе vales, and seem to tread the sky;
th’ eternal snows appear already past
and the first clouds and mountains seem the last;
but those attain’d, we tremble to survey
the growing labours of the lengthen’d way
th’ increasing prospect tires our wand’ring eyes
hills peep o’er hills, and alps on alps arise!
