TO A CAPRICIOUS FRIEND.

Difficilis, facilis, jucundus, acerbus es idem,

Nec tecum possum vivere, nec sine te.—Martial.

[In all thy humors, whether grave or mellow,

Thou’rt such a touchy, testy, pleasant fellow,

Hast so much wit, and mirth, and spleen about thee,

There is no living with thee, nor without thee.—Addison.]
