EPIGRAM CCXXXIII.

There is no Epigram CCXXXII.

[When weddings, in news-paper style are set forth]

SUAVITER UT NUNC EST.

When weddings, in news-paper style are set forth,
The men are all persons of eminent worth;
The ladies possess'd of each qualification!
How happy a state would all married folk know,
Could reports, which endowments so easily bestow,
As easily ensure their duration!—
Make the future, in fact, what the present appears!
And the news of the day, be the history of years!
