But when at full-grown Manhood thou shall be,
The most successful shall renounce the Sea,
The Ships shall sail for mutual Wares no more,
But all things shall abound on ev'ry Shore,
No Plough shall vex the Ground, nor Hook the Vine,
The lab'ring Cattle shall the Yoke decline,
Nor more forc'd painful Servitude shall know,
Nor Wool its various Dyes dissembling show;
The most successful shall renounce the Sea,
The Ships shall sail for mutual Wares no more,
But all things shall abound on ev'ry Shore,

The lab'ring Cattle shall the Yoke decline,
Nor more forc'd painful Servitude shall know,
Nor Wool its various Dyes dissembling show;
