And hitrs the tattler's feat.
Bnt in the fvner§ of finglc life
Ha« p!ac*d bis whole delight :
By day ne'er figh* to have a wife,
To plague hia foul at night.

Id feme rich paflure fet ;
Safe from the ftorm an no fy wind,
Lives like ■ prince in ftafe.
Car ■ pifturc— and at fair,
His countenance fhall fbme /
White femes on every fide appear;
So clever and fo fine !
Net fo the man that's crot a wife,
He lives— pour foul i forlorn,
He’s 'riven thro' ttmpcft din and ftrtfe,
Like chaff before the ftorm.
Hufbandsmuft never dare to {land,
And fpar it face to face.
When wives with broomfficks in their
bands
Would! teach the clowns their place.
Their ryes behold the paths they tread,
They fcold their hnfbandi well /
Bui hatchciors, with no e to dread,
M*y keep it up pell nocll.
