The Twickenham Hotch-Potch | ||
VI. Thomas, I cannot, &c.
I like a Man should sport and play,Without the Way of coquetting:
Kiss, smile and pass the Time away,
Without Remorse of regretting;
Ne'er think at last,
Of Pleasures past,
But Love; and Sorrow banish.
When you're at Ease,
Your Mind you please,
Then all Follies relinquish.
