Known but in drink, — lie found an easy friend, "Well pleased his worth and honour to commend : And thus inform'd, tlie guardian of the trust Heard the applause and said the claim was just. A worthy soul ! unfitted for the strife, Care, and contention of a busy life ; — "Worthy, and why ? — that o'er the midnight bowl He made his friend the i)artner of his soul, And any man his friend : — then thus in glee, " I speak my mind, I love the truth, " quoth he ; Till 't was his fate that useful truth... to find, 'T is sometimes prudent not to speak the mind.
With wine inflated, man is all upblown, And feels a power which he believes his own ; AVith fancy soaring to the skies, he thinks His all the virtues all the while he drinks; But when the gas from the balloon is gone, When sober thoughts and serious cares come on, Where tlien the worth that in himself he found ? — Vanish'd — and he sank grov'ling on the ground.
Still some conceit will Benbow's mind inflate, Poor as he is, — ^'t is pleasant to relate The joys he once possess'd — it soothes his present state.
