A Fool and Knave, with different views, For Julia’s hand apply:
The Knave, to mend his fortune sues: The Fool, to please his eye.Ask you, how J<small>ULIA</small> will behave? Depend on’t for a rule,
If she’s a Fool, she’ll wed the Knave— If she’s a Knave, the Fool.

Additional quotes by Samuel Bishop

In myriad swarms, each summer sun An insect nation shows;
Whose being, since he rose, begun; And e’er he sets will close.Brief is their date, confin’d their pow’rs, The fluttering of a day;—
Yet life’s worth living, ev’n for hours, When all those hours—are play.
