For their approach no heated suitors burn,

Nor briefs delivered task their evening care;

No! children run indeed where’er they turn,

Or scrambling climb at wig and gown to stare.

Oft to their sophistry the sessions yield

Their labours oft have set at large a thief;

How jocund do they drive to such a field,

How bow their heads, when they receive a brief.

Let not their seniors mock this humble toil,

Which some regret that they can share no more;
