{ That work in England is without an end;

{ Well may we change, but we shall never mend.

Yet, if you can but bear the present stage,

We hope much better of the coming age.

}

{ What would you say, if we should first begin

{ To stop the trade of love behind the scene,

{ Where actresses make bold with married men?

For while abroad so prodigal the dolt is,

Poor spouse at home as ragged as a colt is.
