Le Chevalier sans soucis.
I
Let Whig and Tory, Will, debate,And in Defense of Church and State
Proclaim their zealous Folly;
While we, ingenious for our Ease,
Contrive our own dear selves to please,
And banish Melancholy.
II
The Gay, the Witty, and the Fair,Are all the Parties worth our Care;
The Rest would but Enslave Us.
Let Us adore the God of Wine,
Submit to Beauty's Right-Divine,
And trust to Chance to save Us.
