When lately you acquitted me, <br />With Carteret I din'd; <br />And, in Return, (tho' grievous) thee <br />To Onslow I resign'd. <br /> <br />'Tis wise the happy Hour to seize; <br />For, search the Nation round, <br />Such Peers, or Commoners, as these, <br />Where are they to be found? <br /> <br />Our Situation's chang'd you see: <br />(How Pleasures fleet away!) <br />But Yesterday you envy'd me; <br />I envy you To--day.<br /><br />Mary Barber<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-mrs-caesar-at-the-speaker-s-lodgings-at-bath/
