Imitation of the Kit-Kat TOASTS.

Mrs. S. M. Newcomen.

By the Same.

The Graces long, in doubtful Strife,
Consulted how to frame
A perfect Form in humane Life,
Which Envy might not blame.

Each Grace bestow'd a different Part,
And Venus lent her Aid,
To temper all with Heav'nly Art,
So Newcomen was made.
