Paint on such faces is by prudence laid.

Large the domain, but all within combine

To correspond with the dishonour'd sign;

And all around dilapidates; you call—

But none replies—they're inattentive all.

At length a ruin'd stable holds your steed,

90

While you through large and dirty rooms proceed,

Spacious and cold; a proof they once had been

In honour—now magnificently mean;
