Strana 27 - How happy in his low degree, How rich, in humble poverty, is he, Who leads a quiet country life; Discharg'd of business, void of strife, And from the griping scrivener free!
Strana 28 - Or thro' hewn woods their weighty strokes did sound : And after the declining sun Had chang'd the shadows, and their task was done ; Home with their weary team, they took their way, And drown'd in friendly bowls the labours of the day.
Strana 17 - With well-heap'd logs dissolve the cold, And feed the genial hearth with fires; Produce the wine, that makes us bold, And sprightly wit and love inspires : For what hereafter shall betide, God, if 'tis worth his care, provide.

Strana 8 - Could thro' the ranks of ruin go, With storms above, and rocks below ! In vain did Nature's wise command Divide the waters from the land, If daring ships and men prophane Invade th' inviolable main ; Th' eternal fences over-leap, And pass at will the boundless deep.
Strana 17 - Such idle themes no more can move, Nor any thing but what's of high import : And what's of high import, but love £ Vervain and gums, and the green turf prepare ; With wine of two years old your cups be fill'd : After our facrifice and prayer, The goddefs may incline her heart to yield.
Strana 26 - And only afk'd fome lives to bribe her o'er; The god-like man, the more than conqueror, With high contempt fent back the fpecious bait...
