Why should I relieve my neighbour
With my goods against my will?
Can’t he live by honest labour
Can’t he borrow, can’t he steal?
A Paraphrase.
[On the Rev. Dr. Watts’s Celebrated Distich, on the Study of Languages.]
Addressed to the young gentlemen of the English Grammar Schools, by one of their School-fellows.
“Let every foreign tongue alone
Till you can spell and read your own”
