Parnassi Puerperium | ||
47. A Joque, upon the Covetous.
VVhat foolish humour, makes men so intent,Natures contentedness to complement?
Whilest on the other side, but few are nice,
To cast stones at flint-hearted Avarice.
But little Nature craves; well, you'l grant us,
That nothing will suffice the Covetous.
