Blest in each art! by nature form'd to please,
With beauty, sense, with elegance and ease!
Whose piercing genius study'd all mankind,
All Shakespear opening to thy vigorous mind.
In every scene of comic humour known;
In sprightly sallies wit was all thy own.
Whether you seem'd the cit's more humble wife;
Or shone in Townly's higher sphere of life;
Alike thy spirit knew each turn of wit;
And gave new force to all the poet writ.
