From one great principle to one great end;
So did his actions, words and deeds combine
To perfect and accomplish one design.
For this alone he labours to be great;
For this he courts his honours and estate;
For this in secret he his faith conceals;
For this invents a plot and then reveals;
For this holds combat with domestick strife,
And seizes, like old Rome, a Sabine wife;
Wins confidence from artful foes by art,
