'Tis in the circles, where exults the power
Of pleasing, (CHESTERFIELD's much-boasted art),
Where spirit joins with gracefulness—'tis there,
Where female wit, in sparkling beauty gay,
Heightens the lustre of exterior charms;
Thy converse shall the metaphor chastize
Too glaring, and relax its stiff attire.
