Spoken to two young Ladies who asked if I could say any thing on them: One excell'd in a beautiful Complection, the other in fine Eyes.

To the first.

Upon your Cheek sits blooming Youth.

To the other.

Heaven sparkles in your Eye.

To both.

There's something sweet about each Mouth,
Dear Ladies let me try.
