You millers, all a warning take,
and don’t forget this ditty,
You see the biter’s fairly bit,
I think it is no pity.
A Furnished Table.
The world is a well furnished table,
where guests are promiscuously set:
We all fare as well as we’re able,
and scramble for what we can get.
My simile holds to a title:
some gorge, while some scarce have a taste,
But if I’m content with a little,
enough is as good as a feast.
FINIS.
