But we, not as our Pristrin sires repair

T’ umbrageous Grot or Vale, but when the Sun

Faintly from Western Skies his Rays oblique

Darts flopping, and to Thetis watry Lap

Hastens in prone Career, with Friends Select

Swiftly we hie to Devil Young or old

Jocund and Boon, where at the entrance stands

A Stripling, who with Scrapes and Humil Cringe,

Greets us in winning Speech, and Accent Bland;

With lightest bound, and safe unerring step
