What is the price of Experience do men buy it for a song?

Or Wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price

Of all that a man hath his house his wife his children

Wisdom is sold in the desolate market where none come to buy

And in the wither’d field where the farmer plows for bread in vain.

William Blake, Vala, or

The Four Zoas, ‘Night the Second’
