. . . Philologists, who chase
A painting syllable through time and space
Start it at home, and hunt it in the dark,
To Gaul, to Greece, and into Noah's Ark.

Though peace be made, yet it's interest that keep peace.

In every change both mine and yours.
'Tis Providence alone secures
In every change both mine and yours.

Mercy to him that shows it, is the rule.
All learned, and all drunk!
All learned, and all drunk!
