Some dare not leave the old, the beaten Way,
To search new Methods, or in Science stray:
Others with wild Varieties engage,
And build a Seat to face the Ocean's Rage;
Carve Fruit and Flowers, to face the raging Floods,
Festoons of Shells, or Fish, for shady Woods.
Thus willful Erring, join'd with Want of Skill,
Is the most certain Way of Erring still.
The meanest Workman, may attempt to place
A little Dress to decorate a Space;
