AGAINST LIFE.
From the Greek of Prosidippus.
What tranquil road, unvex'd by strife, 
Can mortals choose thro' human life?
Attend the courts, attend the bar--
There discord reigns, and endless jar.

FOR LIFE.
From the Greek of Metrodorus.
Mankind may walk, unvex'd by strife, 
Thro' every road of human life.
Fair wisdom regulates the bar, 
And peace concludes the wordy war.
