To Censorious Courtling
LII.
— TO CENSORIOUS COURTLING.
COURTLING, I rather thou should'st utterly
Dispraise my work, than praise it frostily :
When I am read, thou feign'st a weak applause,
As if thou wert my friend, but lack'dst a cause.
This but thy judgment fools : the other way
Would both thy folly and thy spite betray.
