EPIG.

[The wayward Boy, whose foolish loving mother]

The wayward Boy, whose foolish loving mother
Permits him domineer o'er servants, sister, brother!
Fancies such mute endurance of his kicks and blows
Results from power in him—so with his growth he grows
A braggart!—till some rustic urchin mar his nose!
