Text Appearing Before Image:
Happy the man, whose wish and care A few paternal acres bound,Content to breathe his native air In his own ground. Whose herds with milk, whose fields with bread Whose flocks supply him with attire,Whose trees in summer yield him shade,In winter fire. Blest, who can unconcerndly find Hours, days, and years, slide soft awayIn health of body, peace of mind,Quiet by day, Sound sleep by night; study and ease Together mixed ; sweet recreation.And innocence, which most does pleaseWith meditation. Thus let me live, unseen, unknown ; Thus unlamented let me die ;Steal from the world, and not a stoneTell where I lie. IMITATION OF SWIFT. THE HAPPY LIFE OF A COUNTRY PARSON Parson, these things in thy possessingAre better than the bishops blessing.A wife that makes conserves ; a steedThat carries double when theres need ;October store, and best Virginia,Tithe-pig, and mortuary guinea ; 66
