Shall I proceed? there’s not a quiet spot

In all the parish where the pair were not

Oft watch’d, oft seen. You must not so despise 230

This weighty charge—Now, what will you devise?

C. “Her brother! What, Sir? jealous of a child!

A friend’s relation! Why, the man is wild—

A boy not yet at college! Come, this proves

Some truth in you! This is a freak of Love’s:

I must forgive it, though I know not how

A thing so very simple to allow.
