Страница 310 - Enjoys the fruit of his long toils at last ; The soldier high in his king's favour stands, And, after having long obey'd, commands ; The lawyer, to reward his tedious care, Roars on the bench, that babbled at the bar : While I take pains to meet a fate more hard, And reap no fruit, no favour, no reward.
