While her sad eyes the troubled breast disclose;

Whose outward splendour is but folly’s dress,

Exposing most, when most it gilds distress.

Here joyless roam a wild amphibious race,

With sullen woe display’d in every face;

Who, far from civil arts and social fly,

And scowl at strangers with suspicious eye.

Here too the lawless merchant of the main

Draws from his plough th’ intoxicated swain;

Want only claim’d the labour of the day,
