Every Man in his Own Way

An Epistle to a Friend. By Stephen Duck

expand section

One, whom her Charms unluckily delight,
Courts her at Gaming-tables ev'ry Night:
No matter what her saucy Favours cost,
He will enjoy her till his Fortune's lost;
Careless of what his Wife and Chidren do:
Let Wife and Children starve, what's that to You?
