VVit bought at a dear rate. Being a relation of the misery one suffers by being too kind hearted: wishing all people to beware of that undoing quality; and to be frugal and saving, that in aged years, their life may be as comfortable, as in youth it was pleasant and folly. To the tune of, Turn love, I prethee [sic] love turn to me.
