Haft thou loft deep to needy rogues on thk^ jyho ne'er could pay, and muft be paid next week? Timon. Neither, alas ! but, a dull dining fot Seiz'd me i'th' Mall, who juft my name had got; He runs upon me, cries, dear rogue, I'm thine, With me fome wits of my acquaintance dine. I tell him I'm engaged ; but as a whore, With modefty, enflaves her fpark the more ; The longer I deny'd, the more he preft, At laft I e'en confent to be his gueft; He takes me in his coach, and as we go, Pulls out a libe...l of a meet or two ; Infipid as the praife of pious queens, Or Shadwell's unaflifled former fcenes ; Which he admir'd, and prais'd at every line j At laft it was fo Iharp it muft be mine : I vow'd I was no more a wit than he, Unpraftis'd, and unbleft in poetry : A fong to Phillis I perhaps might make, And never rhim'd, but for my miftrefs' fake : I envy'd no man's fortune, nor his fame, Nor ever thought of a revenge fo tame. He knew my ftile, he Avore, it was in vain, Thus to deny the iflue of my brain.
