May we cease to admire each ostensible Name,
And, blest with those Pleasures the Muses desire,
See Learning, unenvied, to Students retire!
[FROM BELVOIR CASTLE.]
[About 1782–3.]
Oh! had I but a little hut
That I might hide my head in;
Where never guest might dare molest,
Unwelcome or unbidden.
I’d take the jokes of other folks
