LINES WRITTEN_UNDER A PORTRAIT,

(PAINTED BY DIXON.)

Here, Limner ! paint me, if you can,
A warm and generous-hearted man.
Let him not be too dignified,
Though proud, yet still e'en wanting pride ;
Social and free, and frank and kind,
Of manly spirit, liberal mind,
With talents worthy of an age
When native dramas graced the stage, •
Ere British genius dropp'd her lance,
And borrow'd all her wit from France.
'Tis not alone the form or face
The Limner's hand should learn to trace :
No! let him reach a further goal,
And paint the attributes of soul.
'Tis done! the canvas breathes ! we see
Life, spirit, and identity.
And
unison neiascog the ea
proclaimst ur easvballeunedd ,
FRIEND.
