A villain tame, and an unmettled fool,
To half his Vices he has but pretence,
For they usurp the place of common sense;
To half his little Merits has no claim
But very Indolence has rais'd his name,
Happy in this, that under Satan's sway
His passions humble, but will not obey.
The Vicar at the table's front presides,
50
Whose presence a monastic life derides;
