"Thus Vice nurs’d Ingenuity,
Which joined with Time and Industry,
had carry’d Life’s conveniencies,
It’s real Pleasures, Comforts, Ease,
To such a Height, the very Poor
Liv’d better than the Rich before."
Which joined with Time and Industry,
had carry’d Life’s conveniencies,
It’s real Pleasures, Comforts, Ease,
To such a Height, the very Poor
Liv’d better than the Rich before."
— Bernard de Mandeville
