ALL FEMALE CHARMS, I OWN MY FAIR.
All female charms, I own my fair,
In your accomplished form combine;
Yet, why this proud assuming air?
The praise is Nature's, none of thine.
In your accomplished form combine;
Yet, why this proud assuming air?
The praise is Nature's, none of thine.
Wouldst thou, with just pretensions, claim
Of our applause an equal share;
Be thy desert, my dear, the same;
And prove as kind as thou art fair.
Of our applause an equal share;
Be thy desert, my dear, the same;
And prove as kind as thou art fair.
