Thy Muse, that Prostitute abandon’d Jade,

Now flounders in the Mire without Swift’s Aid.

Thy base Invectives Men no more regard;

With just Disdain thy Scare-Crow Muse is heard.

So when the latent Seeds their Fruits display,

And gain fresh Vigour from a genial Ray:

The careful Hind a monst’rous Figure frames;

From various Rags unwonted Terror streams.

The feather’d Choristers in Flocks retreat,

And at a Distance view the tempting Bait.
