In wanton dalliance, and to what sad end

A wretch that’s so given over does arrive at;

Deterring careless youth, by his example,

From such licentious courses; laying open

The snares of bawds, and the consuming arts

Of prodigal strumpets, can deserve reproof,

Why are not all your golden principles,

Writ down by grave philosophers to instruct us

To choose fair virtue for our guide, not pleasure,

Condemned unto the fire?
