And who'd oppose a little tricking,

Which brings yourself a deal of picking?

And where,—to use an honest course,

The saddle's put on the right horse?

Keep, then, those shopkeepers in view,

Who'll more than wink at all you do;—

In short, trust no one (to save trouble),

That won't make out a bill for double.

Mind nothing but your own affairs,

And let the rest attend to theirs.
