Страница 270 - Who, when a thief has robbed his house, Applies himself to cunning men, To help him to his goods again ; When all he can expect to gain, Is but to squander more in vain : And yet I have no other way, But is as difficult to play : For to reduce her, by main force, Is now in vain ; by fair means, worse...
