When man’s delusions, errors, crimes, deceit,
No more distress thee, and no longer cheat.”
Yet, lo! this cautious man, so coolly wise,
On a young Beauty fix’d unguarded eyes;
And her he married: Edward at the view

And when she saw the friends, by reasoning long,
Confused if right, and positive if wrong,
