              On solitude - Alexander Pope

Super Short summary: 

The Poet express his thoughts, lucky are those who limit their aims and cares to their inherited land and enjoy their breathe,the aura of their birthplace on their own land.  His cows offer milk, crops provide food, sheep provide clothing, and trees provide shade in summer and wood for fuel in winter.  Fortunate is the person who's without worry, watches the peaceful flow of hours, days, and years, has good physical health and a serene mind, and stays calm throughout the day. He who sleeps well,with peace,combines hard work and rest,enjoys leisure,is innocent (which delights most), and contemplates deeply.  I want to live alone and unnoticed. Avoid grieving for me and let me die quietly without a memorial,thus the speaker ends his expectations about his life!
