"Because, he said, and made it plain appear,

  Such as he found her, he returned the fair;

  And though for his discourtesy whilere,

  Clodion had every scorn deserved to bear,

  He was content with having made the peer

  Outwatch the weary night in open air.

  Accepting not that cavalier's excuse,

  Who would have thrown on Love his castle's use.
