Truth in Fiction | ||
The MORAL.
‘Wise Men once trick'd, the next Attempt discern,‘And Caution, from experienc'd Dangers, learn:
‘Their Faith abus'd, they will confide no more,
‘Nor venture on the Rocks they scap'd before.
‘They who have been deceiv'd by Fortune's Smiles,
‘And know how her Dependants she beguiles;
‘No Confidence in her Caresses place,
‘But Ruin dread in ev'ry kind Embrace.
