XI. Epitaph on Eusthenes the Physiognomist.
To Eusthenes, the first in wisdom's list,Philosopher and Physiognomist,
This tomb is rais'd: he from the eye could scan
The cover'd thought, and read the very man.
By strangers was his decent bier adorn'd,
By strangers honour'd, and by poets mourn'd:
Whate'er the Sophist merited he gain'd,
And dead, a grave in foreign realms obtain'd.
