[That some there are, who regularly move]
That some there are, who regularly move,Can banish Hate, and overcome their Love,
Hard is the Combat, but the Conquest brave,
For who wou'd live wild Passion's tortur'd Slave
That cou'd reflect, and rightly judging, see
'Tis in their own Election to be free:
Reason and Piety can calm the Breast,
And charm the most intemp'rate Mind to Rest.
