Come ye! who live for pleasure, come, behold

A man of pleasure when he's poor and old;

130

When he looks back through life, and cannot find

A single action to relieve his mind;

When he looks forward, striving still to keep

A steady prospect of eternal sleep;

When not one friend is left, of all the train

Whom 'twas his pride and boast to entertain—

Friends now employ'd from house to house to run
