Mankind Is Unamendable.

A Brain Of Feathers, And A Heart Of Lead.

True Wit Is Nature To Advantage Dress'd What Oft Was Thought, But Ne'er So Well Express'd; Something Whose Truth Convinced At Sight We Find, That Gives Us Back The Image Of Our Mind. As Shades More Sweetly Recommend The Light, So Modest Plainness Sets Off Sprightly Wit.

The Learned Is Happy, Nature To Explore; The Fool Is Happy, That He Knows No More.

And Seem To Walk On Wings, And Tread In Air.

Go, Wiser Thou! And In Thy Scale Of Sense Weigh Thy Opinion Against Providence.
