The works, in verse and prose, of William Shenstone, Esq | ||
The INVIDIOUS.
Mart.
O fortune! if my pray'r of oldWas ne'er solicitous for gold,
With better grace thou may'st allow
My suppliant wish, that asks it now.
211
For the same end your clowns desire it.
In a well-made effectual string,
Fain would I see Lividio swing!
Hear him, from Tyburn's height haranguing,
But such a cur's not worth one's hanging.
Give me, O goddess! store of pelf,
And he will tye the knot himself.
