Usbeck, King of the Tartars.
An Epigram.
Why should old Usbeck Worth despise,
And doat on Female Flatteries?
Find wond'rous Joy, in Spite, and Pelf,
And love no Creature, but himself?
Avoid whatever looks like Right;
In Knaves and Fools, take great Delight?

'Tis odd! and all that can be said, is,
Usbeck a Tartar born, and bred is.
