BY rUk AUTHOR Of ' CORN-IAW RBTOT 8 *' Doctor , I send you , with this scrawl , A thing by no means common - Vot , by the Power that made iis all , I send—a perfect Woman ! No flimsy thing of pride arid prate , fcorruption * 8 empty pander , Who loathes riot quite the goose , n ^ r mate . Yet loves her neighbour ' s gander .
I do not praise her cheek ' s rich hue , Her dress , her air of fashion ; [ say not that the soul ' s deep blue Melts in her eye of passion . But I commend her to the heart On which your own reposes , Because her stern worth can impart A rrace , like rain on roses ;
And teach parental flowers to teach The lore of gainful duty To every plant within her reach , And all their buds of beauty . The meek-treseed angel of yoiir home May take to her own bosom Thoughts bright arid pure as ocean ' s foam , And fresh as morning ' s blossom .
Nor need she dread a rival ' s look , Or hate a rival ' s merit : I send *—a woman In a book \ A world-awaking Spirit I A charm ! a host t a scourge ! a sting ! By tyrants aeen wilh sadness ! A truth-taught power 1 whose mental wing Shall amite them into madness !
Oh , thanks to Lbiidbn !—anct to thee , Sword-breaking Might of Letters ! - Enfranchised Woman shall set free The slave who forged her fetters . For Truth is freedom unto those
Whose souls have strength to seize her ; Th 6 y play a game which none chti lose "" " "" ' WhoseekW ' ' " ' - •< » «• ' ¦ ••• '• • lW ' - '' ¦» . > " »•• • .., ;«•»• ' ..- . ' .
