Ep. 59. On his Lazy and Nice Reader.
If one sole Epigram takes up a Page,You turn it o'er, and will not there engage;Consulting not its Worth, but your dear Ease;And not what's Good, but what is Short, does please.I serve a Feast with all the richest FareThe Market yields, for Tarts you only care.

My Books not fram'd such liq'rish Guests to treat,But such as relish Bread, and solid Meat.
