“ And yet my numbers please the rural throng

Rough satyrs dance ,and plan applauds the song:

The nymphs, forsaking every cave and spring

Their early fruit ,and milk-white turtles bring summer The second pastoral. ‘’

“ A little learning is dangerous thing!

And snatch a grace beyond the reach of art

To err is human : to forgive , divine

True wit is nature to advantage dressed”

“ In vain, in vain –the all composing

hour

Resistless falls the muse obeys the

power She comes ! She comes !The

sable throne behold”

“ And now unveiled ,the toilet stands display’d

Each silver vase in musticorder laid.

First ,robed in white, the hymph intest adores

With head uncover’d, the cosmetic powers”

“ The troops exulting sat in order round

And beaming fires illumined all the

ground

As when the moon refulgent lamp of

night

O’er heaven pure azure spreads her

sacred light”

O’er heaven pure azure spreads her
