Fling but a stone, the giant dies.

   

Avarice, the sphincter of the heart.

   

Though pleas'd to see the dolphins play, I mind my compass and my way.

   

Nor bigots who but one way see, through blinkers of authority.

   

Experience join'd with common sense, To mortals is a providence.

   

They politics like ours profess, the greater prey upon the less.

   

Thus, I steer my bark, and sail On even keel, with gentle gale.

   

Talk of unusual swell of waist In maid of honor loosely laced.
