Which in the Hunters way
The Melancholy Beast did lay.
Call in the Hounds, the fierce Pursuers said,
We've caught the Game, and have our Markets made;
And taking up the Prize they went
All homeward with content.
Whlist the Enervate Beast return'd,
To graze in quiet on the plain:
And never after this Misfortune mourn'd,
Or fled from Hunters or from Hounds again.
