  9. The Monk and His Cat Iand Pangur B´an my cat ’Tis a like task we are at: Hunting mice is his delight, Hunting words I sit all night. Better far than praise of men ’Tis to sit with book and pen; Pangur bears me no ill-will, He too plies his simple skill. Tis a merry thing to see At our tasks how glad are we, When we sit at home and find Entertainment for our mind. Oftentimes a mouse will stray In the hero Pangur’s way; Oftentimes my keen thought set Takes a meaning in its net. Against the wall he sets his eye Fierce and strong and sharp and sly; Against the wall of knowledge I All my little wisdom try. When a mouse darts from its den, O how glad is Pangur then! O what gladness do I prove When I solve those doubts I love! So in peace our tasks we ply, Pangur B´an, my cat, and I; In our arts we find our bliss, I have mine and he has his. Practice every day has made Pangur perfect in his trade; I get wisdom day and night, Turning darkness into light.
