Which he may treat with all the pomp of art;

Curious conjectures he may always make,

And either side of dubious questions take;

He may a system broach, or, if he please,

Start new opinions of an old disease:

Or may some simple in the woodland trace,

And be its patron, till it runs its race;

As rustic damsels from their woods are won,

And live in splendour till their race be run;

It weighs not much on what their powers be shown,
