A l . Court of Apollo. to.
From the Weekly Inspector.
The following address from a
Ladv, to Dr. Caustic, one
would suppose, ‘would have a
tendecv to soften the heart of
the old Peripatetic ; or at least
induce him to correct some of
his men faults v rut foibles, he.
fore he falls pell mell upon the
fair sex.
You say we’re fond of fops—why
not,
When men of sense cannot he got ?
A xvoman something must admire,
Or else with ennui expire.
O Doctor ! listen to my pray’r—
A lesson for proud man prepare ;
There is a fault you must confess,
Most men of wit and worth pos
sess.
They seem to think in woman’s
mind,
Jlut very little sense to find ;
And therefore when tlwy conde
scend,
Perchance an how with us to i
spend—
Think it impossible to please,
With their profound sublime ideas
But sit in silence, most heroic,
Plodding like philosophic stoic.
Upon my word I do not know,
Aught more provoking here be
low ;
Than thus to sec a man who might
Fill every soui with pure delight.
Sit pondering u ith tho’t profound
On follies of each female ’round ;
Then wonder at our want of spi
rit,
And blindness to his worth and
merit.
Now in my mind, pert prattling
beaus,
Arc more amusing, far than those;
I grunt sometimes a man you find,
With reison, wit, and genius
join’d ;
With each united charm & grace,
Which fascinate the female race ;
One whom no prejudice controuls
To think of souls.
Should such a iiian as tins ad
vance,
The fop will stand hut little
chance ;
Believe me, sir, our sex you’ll
find,
To mental worth is never blind.
The man of mind we more ad
mire,
Than perfect forms* or fine attire;
Most women will the fop despise,
When men of sense shall be so
“Wise.
As to discard Turk.like opinions,
That women are hut nature’s min
ions ;
Made for a while to please the eye
To nourish man, and then to die l
When vou do this we’ll hid adieu,
To Lip dogs, lops, and monkies
too ;
Reserving all our admiration,
For man, the Glory ot creation.
