Who to patch up his fame, or fill his purse, Still pilfers wretched plans, and makes them worse Like gypsies, lest the stolen brat be known, Defacing first, then claiming for his own.
Who to patch up his fame, or fill his purse, Still pilfers wretched plans, and makes them worse Like gypsies, lest the stolen brat be known, Defacing first, then claiming for his own.
To copy beauty forfeits all pretense to fame; to copy faults is want of sense.
Men the most infamous are fond of fame, And those who fear not guilt yet start at shame.
