73
A CHARACTER.
Generous, and good, sincere, and void of art,Blest with a tender, yet an honest heart,
Humane, and affable, to vice a foe,
Neither too much the rustic, or the beau:
Polite, and friendly, comely, good, and kind,
Foe to deceit, to virtue most inclin'd.
Fearless of danger, in a noble cause,
A firm supporter of fair honor's laws,
74
And in his soul shines honesty, and truth,
Esteem'd by many, and by most approv'd,
By Delia honour'd, and by Delia lov'd.
