Pàgina 59 - And chose me for an humble friend; Would take me in his coach to chat, And question me of this and that; As, 'What's o'clock!
Pàgina 56 - Of land, set out to plant a wood. Well, now I have all this and more, I ask not to increase my store ; But here a grievance seems to lie, All this is mine but till I die ; 10 I can't but think 'twould sound more clever, To me and to my heirs for ever.
Pàgina 58 - And take it kindly meant to show What I desire the world should know. I get a whisper, and withdraw, When twenty fools I never saw Come with petitions fairly penn'd, Desiring i would stand their friend.
Pàgina 192 - ... hear, a pleasant rogue art. Were but you and I acquainted, Every monster should be painted : You should try your graving tools On this odious group of fools ; Draw the beasts as I describe them...
Pàgina 77 - ... to try Some new unbeaten passage to the sky ; Where Jove a seat among the gods will give To those who die, for meriting to live. Next faithful Silence hath a sure reward ; Within our breast be every secret barr'd ! He who betrays his friend, shall never be Under one roof, or in one ship, with me : * The ensign of the lord treasurer's office.

In the porch Briareus stands, Shows a bribe in all his hands ; Briareus the secretary, But we mortals call him Carey. When the rogues their country fleece, They may hope for pence a-piece.
