The Young Disease, That Must Subdue At

And Write About It, Goddess, And About It!

Fortune In Men Has Some Small Diff'rence Made, One Flaunts In Rags, One Flutters In Brocade, The Cobbler Apron'd, And The Parson Gown'd, The Friar Hooded, And The Monarch Crown'd.

Trade It May Help, Society Extend, But Lures The Pirate, Ant Corrupts The Friend: It Raises Armies In A Nation's Aid, But Bribes A Senate, And The Land's Betray'd.

Men Must Be Taught As If You Taught Them Not, And Things Unknown Proposed As Things Forgot.

Virtuous And Vicious Every Man Must Be, Few In The Extreme, But All In The Degree.
