Spoken extempore, to the Right Honourable the Lady Barbara North,
on her presenting the Author with a white Ribband at Tunbridge-Wells.
This Present from a lovely Dame,Fair and unsully'd, as her Fame,
Shall to Hibernia be convey'd,
Where once, rever'd, her Father sway'd;
And taught the drooping Arts to smile,
And with his Virtues bless'd our Isle.
