M ATI L D A. A Character.
MATILDA thoughtless, youngand gay.
In trifles paffd her time away;
The play, the ball, the gay feartie,
By turns engrofa'd her mind and Ihel
In these alone her time (he spent,
Nor ever thought for what \was lent.
But fair Matilda, think betime,
Nor thus inglorious waste your prime:
Confider while with pains and toft
You deck that face—which soon is loft,
With half the painsto deck your mind,
Wou'd leave the sweetest trace behind,
"Wou'd soothe your thoughts and banilh care
When other beauties feel despair.
