FAB. LXIV. The Old Hound.
The Hownd grown old no more persues ye game,But bends beneath the Huntman's weighty Cane,
And being opprest, does thus his cace bemone,
O spare my age for what in youth I've done.
Morall
Old servants when their labour's past are scorn'd,And out of favour and of Service turn'd.
