TO CELIA, by JOHN SUCKLING Poet's Biography
First Line: Youth and beauty now are thine
Last Line: Is refined.

YOUTH and beauty now are thine,
O let pleasure, Celia, join:
Be divine.

Shun the folly of disdain,
Pride affords a short-lived reign
Full of pain.

All the graces court the kind,
Beauty by a tender mind
Is refined.
