So well these good young people sympathised.
All their relations, neighbours, and allies,
All their dependants, visitors, and spies,
Such as a wealthy family caress,
Said here was love, and drank to love’s success.
’Tis thus I leave the parties, young and old,
Lovers and Friends. Will Love and Friendship hold? 80
Will Prudence with the children’s wish comply,
And Friendship strengthen with that new ally?
