It can't be Nature, for it is not sense.
Those who would make us feel must feel themselves.
Though by whim, envy, or resentment led, they damn those authors whom they never read.
Men the most infamous are fond of fame, And those who fear not guilt yet start at shame.
Quick-circulating slanders mirth afford; and reputation bleeds in every word.
Whom drink made wits, though nature made them fools.
