Who Combats Bravely Is Not Therefore Brave,

No Writing Is Good That Does Not Tend To Better Mankind In Some Way Or Other.

To Observations Which Ourselves We Make, We Grow More Partial For Th' Observer's Sake.

Intestine War No More Our Passions Wage, And Giddy Factions Bear Away Their Rage.

Court-virtues Bear, Like Gems, The Highest Rate, Born Where Heav'n Influence Scarce Can Penetrate. In Life's Low Vale, The Soil The Virtues Like, They Please As Beauties, Here As Wonders Strike.

Fly, Dotard, Fly! With Thy Wise Dreams And Fables Of The Sky.
