THE ORIGIN OF MAN.
From the fragments of Menander, by the Reverend Mr. Fawkes.
To know the origin from whence you came,
And the frail fashion of this human frame,
Pause o'er those monuments with pensive eye,
Where purpled tyrants, proud oppressors lie;
. . . [6 lines]
THE PLEASURES OF SOLITUDE. From the same
How sweet and pleasant to a man endu'd
With moral goodness, is deep solitude?
Pensive to rove, not meditating harm,
And life in affluence at his country farm.
. . . [6 lines]
