Or while they please, torment. The stubborn Clown, 325

The ill-tam’d Ruffian, and pale Usurer,

(If Love’s omnipotence such hearts can mould)

May safely mellow into love; and grow

Refin’d, humane, and generous, if they can.

Love in such bosoms never to a fault 330

Or pains or pleases. But ye finer Souls,

Form’d to soft luxury, and prompt to thrill

With all the tumults, all the joys and pains,

That beauty gives; with caution and reserve
