Work! work! work!
While the cock is crowing aloof!
And work—work—work,
Till the stars shine through the roof!

Thomas Hood

Of all our pains, since man was curst, I mean of body, not the mental, To name the worst, among the worst, The dental sure is transcendental; Some bit of masticating bone, That ought to help to clear a shelf: But lets its proper work alone, And only seems to gnaw itself.

Thomas Hood
