In angry numbers warn'st succeeding times;
Then shall thy friend, nor thou refuse his aid, <-- What does this line mean?
Still foe to vice, forsake his Cambrian shade;
In virtue's cause once more exert his rage,
Thy satire point, and animate thy page.
I've included the rest to give you the context (it's from London, by Samuel Johnson). I didn't understand what that line meant, if any of you could help, and also explain why? I think the grammar and use of 'nor' is what is confusing me.
