A FRAGMENT.
[Promiscuous Crouds to worthless Riches born]
Promiscuous Crouds to worthless Riches born,Thy Pencil paints, 'tis true, yet paints with Scorn.
Sometimes the Fool, by Nature left half-made,
Mov'd by some happy Instinct asks thy Aid,
To give his Face to Reason some Pretence,
And raise his Looks with Supplemental Sense.
