— 41 And such there are, whose names the muse would deem, The fairest honour that attends her theme ; But genuine merit its own claims repays, And consanguinity forbids the praise ; Enough, that num'rous friends their worth declare, And tutor'd children love their guardian care. Benignant heaven ! where's the state below, Whence no concihating blessings flow ? In which the heart at length not reconcil'd, Finds all the track of life a barren wild ? From love the pleasing theme to beauty roves. B...eauty, which Sensibility improves. — Yes, all enchanting pow'r ! by thee arraj'M, Transcendant graces clothe the matchless maid. Tho' less than truth's unfault'ring hand combine The flowing form, and fair proportion'd line — 42 Prom thee attractive modesty proceeds; From thee the bkish the glowing cheek o'erspreads Thine is the alter'd mien, as oft the gaze, Uncheck'd by decency, the form surveys ; Or scans the spotless breast which gently swells. And all but love's permitted suit repels. Already has the muse th* attraction own'd Which masculine endowments shed around: How shitll her hand the pleasing task essay While female beauty claims the plausive lay?
