14. To his Highly valued Uncle, Thomas Pecke of Spixworth, Esquire.
VVhen as it was my happy Chance to lie,Sucking sweet Milk, from th'University:
My happy Fortune, prompted you to hold,
Fast my Affection by the Threads of Gold.
But now the Scene is chang'd. You'l not confer
Your Cash, but on the sprightful Traveller.
What though you cannot push me into France?
Though you cease Piping; still my Love shall Dance.
