Don's and Danube's tribes, and the Gete Care not great Caesar's wrath to meet. Far Asia, Persia fear ; Perjury's play is dear. Blest our time's fortune that we may At our pleasure make holiday ; Bacchus will cheer provide ; Our househ...olds by our side.

RURAL JOYS " Happy the countryman, bred up in ways The rule of Italy's old days ; Who, Uke his sire, guides his own team, and owes Usurers nought on fields he ploughs. " Affairs concern him not.
