TO THE EXCELLENT MIRANDA, CONSORT OF AARON HILL, ESQ.
ON READING HER POEMS.
Each soft'ning charm of Clio's smiling song,Montague's soul, which shines divinely strong,
These blend, with graceful ease, to form thy rhime,
Tender, yet chaste; sweet-sounding, yet sublime;
Wisdom and wit have made thy works their care,
Each passion glows, refin'd by precept, there:
To fair Miranda's form each grace is kind;
The Muses and the Virtues tune thy mind.
