[An Epilogue for a Schoolplay]

[_]

[1729]

To day our Scenes have to your View desp[l]ayd
The consequence of cruelty & pride
The Tyrant falls while one Heroick chief
to groning Nations gives a brave relief
such beautyous Painting should engage each mind
to all thats generous noble just & kind
Then since Improvment now is all our aim
we surely may your smiles & praises claim
which if obtaind youl Quickly see each Boy
spring throw his Learning up to man with Joy
