"Put thou fair tord new v. thou heart with alorun s rau d A when monarchal hersie With him the princely Por Engraved by F Falles And crown for merit what mere nature gave. Not all alike supernal Heaven endows, Nor equal mind to equal heart allows : Full oft ingenuous pangs, and noble tears, Or modest doubt, the phantom child of fears, To humble Worth a consecration lend, That proves for lost renown sublime amend ;— Let mind be nurs'd, though doom'd a narrow sphere, And what his Maker gives, let man revere ! Allow that Genius wears a curbless soul That chafes in fetters, and defies control; And, haughty as the mountain eagle chain'd, Hath every empire but her own disdain'd. |
