He is the happy wanderer, who goes,

The secrets of the highway, and the rose
Holds fairer for the wounds that briars make.

Additional quotes by Percy Addleshaw

We shall lodge at the sign of the Grave, you say;
Well, the road is a long one we trudge, my friend,
So why should we grieve at the break of the day?
Let us sing, let us drink, let us love, let us play,--
We can keep our sights for the journey's end.
