Isaac Watts (1674-1768)

Against Evil Company

1     Why should I join with those in Play,
2         In whom I've no delight,
3     Who curse and swear, but never pray,
4         Who call ill Names, and fight.

5     I hate to hear a wanton Song,
6         Their Words offend my Ears:
7     I should not dare defile my Tongue
8         With Language such as theirs.

9     Away from Fools I'll turn my Eyes,
10       Nor with the Scoffers go;
11   I would be walking with the Wise,
12       That wiser I may grow.

13   From one rude Boy that's us'd to mock
14       Ten learn the wicked Jest;
15   One sickly Sheep infects the Flock,
16       And poysons all the rest.
