[Essay from the London Magazine for Sept. 1736, entitled "Of
the Power of Custom, " ends with the following lyrics
attributed to Dryden:]
  By education most men are misled, 
  We so believe, because we so were bred;
  The priest continues what the nurse began, 
  And thus the child imposes on the man.
