Familiar letters and poems on several occasions
By Mary Masters
Masters, Mary (ca. 1706-ca. 1759)
Familiar Letters, &c.
[To wear away Time as we can, we full oft]
[O wou'd the Free-born Maids together join]
[Fear not my Genius to unfold]
[Fear not, Maria, to display]
[But this is the Effect of present Grief]
[That some there are, who regularly move]
[Though I feel no youthful Fires]
[An active Mind, and Spirits gay]
On Good Friday.
Another Passage from Petrarch.
[A shining Treasure from the World conceal'd]
[Had, hitherto, escap'd those Darts]
[Ye lovely Nymphs of Britain's beauteous Race]
[For early will the treach'rous Tempters come]
[For though fond Hope our Wishes oft deceives]
[Pride, that imperious Fiend too well I know]
[A Love which greater Transports can impart]
