Precept I.
In Things of Moment on thy Self depend
Nor trust too far thy Servant or thy Friend,
With private Views thy Friend may promise fair
And Servants very seldom prove sincere.

Precept II.

Dangers, unthought of, will attend Delay,
Your distant prospects all precarious are,
And Fortune is as fickle as she's fair.

When sprites and spirits glide around,
When fairies sport in forest bower,
And moonlight silvers o'er the ground;
