The GLOVE.
Tell me, sweet glove! what name the charmer bears,
Whose downy hand thy snowy cov'ring wears?
Whose downy hand thy snowy cov'ring wears?
'Tis a dear name, I am forbid to tell,
But these distinguish'd marks may paint her well:
She's gently aweful, winningly severe,
Charms, when she speaks, yet rather loves, to hear;
Wise, as a god; as fancy'd angels, fair;
Lovely, as light, and soft, as upper air.

Enough, sweet glove! by this plain picture, taught,
H---e, I find, is the dear name, I sought.
