I heard John Bradshaw read the poem on one episode of his PBS series, The Eight Stages of Man. There is also the book by the same title and author. I don't want to buy the book to get the rest of this passage and the Internet has been no help in finding who was the original author. Does anyone have the book or know the rest of the lines?
