TheFOOL.
He goeth after her as an Ox goeth to the Slaughter, or as a Fool to the Correction of the Stocks.
Proverbsvii. 22.
No Life so sweet as to be mad,And no one Thing to know;But this is far remov’d from best,As Mad-men’s Actions shew.Secure of Fate the witless FoolLike sportive Lambkins treads,And knows not that his ev’ry StepTo Death’s sad Portals leads.
