They are sped; And when they list, their lean and flashy songs Grate on their scrannel pipes of wretched straw; The hungry sheep look up, and are not fed, But, swoln with wind and the rank mist they draw, Rot inwardly, and foul contagion spread: Besides what the grim wolf with privy paw Daily devours apace, and nothing said: But that two-handed engine at the door Stands ready to smite once, and smite no more.

How shall he keep, what, sleeping or awake, A weaker may surprise, a stronger take? His safety must his liberty restrain : All join to guard what each desires to gain. Forc'd into virtue thus, by self-defence, Ev'n kings learn'd justice and benevolence : Self-love forsook the path it first pursued, And found the private...
Página 223 - Both heaven and heavenly graces do much more " (Quoth he) "abound in that same land than this: For there all happy peace and plenteous store Conspire in one to make contented bliss. No wailing there nor wretchedness is heard, No bloody issues nor no leprosies, No...
