Cottil is apt to wink upon a peer,

When turn'd away, with a familiar leer;

And Harvey's eyes, unmercifully keen,

Have murder'd fops, by whom she ne'er was seen.

Niger adopts stray libels; wisely prone

To covet shame still greater than his own.

Bathyllus, in the winter of threescore,

Belies his innocence, and keeps a whore.

Absence of mind Brabantio turns to fame,

Learns to mistake, nor knows his brother's name;
