Grocott & Ward, comps.  Grocott’s Familiar Quotations, 6th ed.  189-?.
 
Rake
 
Men, some to business, some to pleasure take;
But every woman is at heart a rake:
Men, some to quiet, some to public strife;
But every lady would be queen for life.
        Pope.—Moral Essays, Epi. II. Line 215; and see his Silvia, a Fragment.		  1
