Cave of Poverty, The - Part 89
While prosp'rous Vice, and worthless Folly climbs
The Ladder of Ambition, Gaudy State!
While Slaves, that owe their Grandeur to their Crimes,
Are robed in Pow'r; and grow, by Flatt'ry, Great;
While Sycophants, by Smiles and pleasing Lyes,
Are hugg'd at Courts, and to Preferment rise.
