(Whose unregarded Cries, unheeded Moans,
Whose unrelieved Distress, unpitied Groans,
Whose unreliev'd Distress, unpity'd Groans,
Can scarce extort a Mite) such do not grudge
To purchase Hell at dearest Rates, and drudge
To please their brutish lusts, who void of measure
Consume Estates to wantonize in Pleasure,
