I/AIN are the fculptur’d effigies of Fame,
Beneath whole clarion shades forgotten lie J
Vain arc the records of the titled name !
The Muse alone forbids the brave to die !
Why then to thee these honours do we pay,
Untitled Wolfe, in thine own merits great,?

Need not th’ affiilance of the sculptor’s art ;
Th’ hilloric pen the faireil trophy rears.
