DEBT.
Unhallowed thing ! lot not thy stii J-j Again my peace and freedom break? May never moro thy sullen score Bo made on me, for mercy's sake ! They who borrow play with sorrow (For grace in loans is seldom found) And they who lond do often send Detracting whisperings around. Let worthy pride temptation chido ; Be sceptic of the friend resource ; | For he must cringe 'who will infringe On his own independent course. I Desires confine, frugally dine, < Expenses within income bind ; With prudent eye, increasing, try To turn alluring Debt behind.
