Seite 180 - Nor what to give, but what to take ; To feel the Pulfes of their Fees, More wife than fumbling Arteries ; Prolong the Snuff of Life in pain, And from the Grave recover - — Gain.
Seite 182 - Mong these there was a politician* With more heads than a beast in vision, And more intrigues in every one Than all the Whores of Babylon ; So politic, as if one eye Upon the other were a spy, That, to trepan the one to think The other blind, both strove to blink ; And in his dark pragmatic way As busy as a child at play.
