To break their villain jests on worthy men,
The graver still the fitter! Fie, for shame!
Regard what such would say? So would not I,
No more than heed a cur.
HONOURABLE SUCCESS.
What merit to be dropp'd on fortune's hill?
The honour is to mount it.

Frugality, and honesty;—the sinews
The surest help the climber to the top,
