rHk VANITY OF HUHAN WISHES-

Id aobaryation. with extensive view,
Survey mankind from China 10 Peru;
Remaft each anxious toll each eager nIiie
And watch the busy scenes Of crowded liie
Thsn sav how hone and fear, desire and hate,
o;ensprssd with snares the clouded maze Of iate,
Where uayering man, betrayed BY yiHuous pride,
- trsed the drsary ps,tha without guide,
ks treacherous phantoms in the mist deludo
Rhuns anoied ills, or chsses airy good.
How rarely reason guides the stubborn choice,
Rrilee the bold hand, or prompts tho Suppuant
Voieal
How nutlJns sink, BY darling schemes oppreSti
when vengeance listens 10 the FOOLS request

How lust his hopes let Swedish Charles decide.

CYer love DER lear extends his wide domain,
Unconauered lord Of pleasure and OF pain;
No ioys 10 him pacific sceptres yield,
War sounds the trump, he rushes 70 the uela;
Behold surrounding kings their power combine,
And one cspitulate, and one resign;
Peace courts his hand, but spreads her charms
