The Garden of DelightLittle Hut“Don’t you have a little hut?Don’t you have a little nest?Don’t you have any networks?Aren’t you free of shackles?”“Indeed I have no little hut.Indeed I have no little nest.Indeed I have no networks.Indeed I’m free from shackles.”“What do you think I call your little hut?What do I call your little nest?What do I call your network?And what do I call your shackle?”“You call mother a little hut;and wife a little nest.You call children a network,and you call my craving a shackle.”“It’s good you have no little hut!It’s good you have no little nest!It’s good you have no networks!And good that you’re free from shackles.”
