Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGCURSE on ungrateful man that can be pleased | A |
And yet can starve the author of the pleasure | B |

By far my elder brother in the Muses | D |
With tears I pity thy unhappy fate | E |
Why is the Bard unpitied by the world | F |
Yet has so keen a relish of its pleasures | G |
