THE REASONABLE FAIR: OR, MODERATE WISH.
While Phyllis with ambitious views,
Her int'rest in this world pursues;
While selfish Sylvia aims her darts
At suitors' purses -- not their hearts;
May I in calm contentment find
An easy balance of the mind.
Grant me, ye powers, whom I adore,
These trivial boons-- I ask no more.
. . . [3 more verses]
