Myself like him too, by his leave;

Nor to his pleasure, power, or pelf

Came I to crouch, as I conceive;

Dame Nature doubtless has designed

A man the monarch of his mind.

Now taste and try this temper, sirs;

Mood it and brood it in your breast;

Or if ye ween, for worldly stirs,

That man does right to mar his rest,

Let me be left, and debonair;
