TO A POET OF QUALITY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Of thy judicious muse's sense
Last Line: Thou shouldst forget his daughter's beauty.
Subject(s): Beauty; Muses; Poetry & Poets


OF thy judicious muse's sense,
Young Hinchinbroke so very proud is,
That Sacharissa and Hortense
She looks, henceforth, upon as dowdies.

Yet she to one must still submit,
To dear mamma must pay her duty,
She wonders, praising Wilmot's wit,
Thou shouldst forget his daughter's beauty.
