Poems on Several Occasions With Anne Boleyn to King Henry VIII. An Epistle. By Mrs. Elizabeth Tollet. The Second Edition |
Poems on Several Occasions | ||
From Owen's Epigrams.
Were now the Strife renew'd, so fam'd of Old,When Beauty's Queen obtain'd the Orb of Gold,
In vain might Venus, or the warlike Maid,
Or practise Airs, or Eloquence to plead:
A modern Youth would judge with other Eyes,
And money'd Juno gain the splendid Prize.
