That very night he longs to lie alone . The fool whose wife elopes some thrice a
quarter , For matrimonial solace dies a martyr . Did ever Proteus , Merlin , any
witch , Transform themselves so strangely as the rich ? Well , but the poor - the

If not so pleased , at council - board rejoice To see their judgments hang upon thy
voice ; From morn to night , at senate , rolls , and hall , Plead much , read more ,
dine late , or not at all . But wherefore all this labour , all this strife ? For fame ...

... but could not eat at night , Call'd happy dog ! the beggar at his door , And
envied thirst and hunger to the poor . Or shall we every decency confound ;
Through taverns , stews , and bagnios take our round , Go dine with Chartres , in

Страница 54 - True ease in writing comes from art, not chance, As those move easiest who have learn'd to dance.
Страница 6 - I said; Tie up the knocker, say I'm sick, I'm dead. The Dog-star rages! nay 'tis past a doubt, All Bedlam, or Parnassus, is let out: Fire in each eye, and papers in each hand, They rave, recite, and madden round the land.
Страница 106 - twixt reading and Bohea, To muse, and spill her solitary Tea, Or o'er cold coffee trifle with the spoon, Count the slow clock, and dine exact at noon...
Страница 12 - Till grown more frugal in his riper days, He paid some bards with port, and some with praise ; To some a dry rehearsal was assign'd, And others (harder still) he paid in kind.

Страница 280 - Some gentle James, to bless the land again ; To stick the doctor's chair into the throne, Give law to words, or war with words alone, Senates and courts with Greek and Latin rule, And turn the council to a grammar school ! For sure, if Dulness sees a grateful day, 'Tis in the shade of arbitrary sway.
Страница 14 - What ? that thing of silk, Sporus, that mere white curd of Ass's milk ? Satire or sense, alas! can Sporus feel ? Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel ? P.
