Strana 317 - Ye restless men ! who pant for letter'd praise, With whom would you consult to gain the bays? With those great authors whose fam'd works you read? 'Tis well ; go, then, consult the laurcl'd shade, What answer will the laurel'd shade return?
Strana 111 - Tis greatly wise to know, before we 're told, The melancholy news, that we grow old. Autumnal Lyce carries in her face Memento mori to each public place. O how your beating breast a mistress warms, Who looks through spectacles to see your...

Strana 67 - Nor envies, when a gipsy you commit, And shake the clumsy bench with country wit ; When you the dullest of dull things have said, And then ask pardon for the jest you made.
