Then, too, the Widow, whom he loved so well,

Would not refuse with such a man to dwell;

And, to complete his views, he might be made 130

A Borough-Justice, when he ceased to trade;

For he had known—well pleased to know—a mayor

Who once had dealt in cheese and vinegar.

Who hastens to be rich, resembles him

Who is resolved that he will quickly swim,

And trusts his full-blown bladders! He, indeed,

With these supported, moves along with speed;
