FRIENDLY COUNSEL
TRUE PLEASURES. Pleasures are like poppies spread, You sieze the fiow’r, its bloom is shed! Or little the snowfall in the river, A moment white—then melts for ever, Or like the horealis race, That hit ere you can point their place, Or like the rainbow’s lovely form, Evanishing amid the storm. EOBEET BURNS. ****** Pleasure must be regulated by propriety. Pleasure which cannot be obtained but by unseasonable or unsuitable expense,, must always end in pain; and pleasure, which must be enjoyed at the expense df another’s pain, can never be such as a worthy mind can fully delight in. SAMUEL JOHNSON. • * * * * * Who overcomes By force, hath overcome but half his foe. .JOHN MILTON.
