To seeke my Fortune, did adventure mee;

And, many hazards, I alighted on.

First, Englands greatest Rendevouz I sought,

Where Vice and Vertve at the highest sit;

And, thither, both a Minde and Bodie brought,

For neither of their Services unfit.

Both, woo'd my Youth: And, both perswaded so,

That (like the Young man in our Emblem here)

I stood, and cry'd, Ah! which way shall I goe?

To me so pleasing both their Offers were.
