“There is the closet, there the toilet, there

The antechamber⁠—search them under, over;

There is the sofa, there the great arm-chair,

The chimney⁠—which would really hold a lover.

I wish to sleep, and beg you will take care

And make no further noise, till you discover

The secret cavern of this lurking treasure⁠—

And when ’tis found, let me, too, have that pleasure.
