CLARA;
OR VENUS AT ABERDEEN.
A thousand Beauteous Forms I've seen, and lov'd;And Prudes, Coquets, or Jilts, they most have prov'd:
But Clara Shines in all the Fire of Youth,
Her each sweet Air speaks Tenderness and Truth:
Her radiant Eyes eclipse Their brightest Charms;
Her gentle Heart atones for all their Harms.
Sept. 19. 1728.
