Tell the Truth But Tell It False

tell the truth but tell it false
success in obfuscation lies
for truth makes wintry ill the spring
and sickly pale our green delight;
 
like pleasant sleep to children
make dark the springfield mind
draw shadows from the troubled brow
and let all men stay blind
 
till all at last is fade away 
and man the master now --
