English poem
Epigrams on his Garden Shed
I.
Beware of building! I intended Rough logs and thatch, and thus it ended.
II.
Instead of a pound or two, spending a mint Must serve me at least, I believe, with a hint, That building and building a man may be driven At last out of doors, and have no house to live in.
