    A man so various, that he seem'd to be
    Not one, but all mankind's epitome;
    Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong.
    Was everything by starts, and nothing long;
    But in the course of one revolving moon,
    Was chymist, fiddler, statesman, and buffoon.

But spurned in vain! Youth waneth by increasing.
