charms you in his spouse might trace;
The weather injured solely had her face,
But not the features which were perfect yet:
Some wish perhaps more blooming belles to get;
The rustick truly me would ne'er have pleased;
But such are oft by country parsons seized,
Who low amours and dishes coarse admire,
That palates more refined would not desire.

Upon an ancient work my hands I've placed;
Where full a hundred

And various characters we may behold;

My story int'rest in her page creates;
Beyond dispute from her we always find,
Simplicity with striking art combin'd.
