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.
