98. On Mans folly.
Ideots
, and Sense-bound Lunaticks discerne
'Twixt Salt and Suger; very Babes will learne
To know a Counter from the currant Coyne;
Bruit Beasts, by 'Instinct of Nature, will decline
Th'alluring Bait, and sense-beguiling Snare;
Though that seeme nere so sweet; this, nere so faire:
Yet Man, heavn's greatest Master-piece will chuse,
What Fooles, and Mad-men, Beasts, and Babes refuse;
Delights in dangerous Pleasures, and beneath
The name of Ioyes, pleases himselfe to death.
