raKffIKSSSEXSOBSBHS POETRY. ADVICE to the FAIR BEXi By Dr. Samuel Jehnfon . THE trembling mother, anxious for her race, Begs for each birth the fortune of a face t • Vet Vane could tell what tils from beauty spring, And Sedly curs*d the form that pleas’d a King. Ye nymphs of rosy lips and radiant eyes, Whom Pleasure keeps too busy to be wife; Whom joys with foft varieties invite, Br day the frolic, and the dance by night; Who frown with vanity, who finite with art, And a(k the latett faihiont of the heart; What care, what rules your heedless charms (hall save, Each nymph your rival) and each youth your Have l Against your fame, with fondnefs hate combines, The rival batters, and the lover mines. With distant voice neglected Virtue calls, Lets heard and less, the faint rcmonftrauce falls, Tir’d with contempt, the quits the flipp’ryr reign, And Pride and Prudence take her feat in vain. In crowd at ovce, where-none the pass defend, The harmless freedom, and the private friend, The guardians yield, by forte superior ply’d; By lm’reft, Prudence; and by Flatt’ry, Pride. Then Beauty falls betray’d, defpis’d, diflrefs’d,' And hiding Infamy proclaims the red. BON MOT .
