LXXV.

They are young, but know not Youth—it is anticipated;

Handsome but wasted, rich without a sou;[LC]Their vigour in a thousand arms is dissipated;

Their cash comes from, their wealth goes to a Jew;

Both senates see their nightly votes participated

Between the Tyrant's and the Tribunes' crew;

And having voted, dined, drunk, gamed, and whored,

The family vault receives another Lord.
