On a Divine PARAPHRASE,

Written by a GENTLEMAN.

Whoe'er Thou art, of all th' inspired Train,
That sings of Heav'n in such a Heav'nly Strain;
Such soft Perswasion dwells upon thy Tongue,
Such moving Eloquence attends the Song,
That well thy Numbers, and their Theme agree
And what You Paint, You seem Your self to be.
