    He ne'er consider'd it as loth
    To look a gift-horse in the mouth,
    And very wisely would lay forth
    No more upon it than 'twas worth;
    But as he got it freely, so
    He spent it frank and freely too:
    For saints themselves will sometimes be,
    Of gifts that cost them nothing, free.
