THE EDINBU-RGH
A youth fo engaging with eafe might deceive, .
What we wi(h to be true, Love bids us believe.
He ftole my fond heart, then he left me to mourn.
For peace and content, that ne'er can return :
From the clown to the beau, the fex are all art,
They complain of the wound, but we feel the fmart J
We join in the fraud, and ourfclves we deceive,
What we wifh to be true, Love bids us believe.
SONG CXXVII.

I am a jolly fifherman, I catch what I can
get, Still going on my better's plan, All's
