Certain it is, that, she strove to inspire the Lesbian women with a taste for lite- rature, and that public honoui*s were de- creed her. At length the hatred of some females of distinction, who v/ere humbled by her superiority, broke out against her. The vivacity of her disposition led her to reply with some degree of irony, and more truth, which exasperated her enemies so highly, that she was obliged to tly from their persecutions. She possessed the most extreme sensibility, and loved Phaon to... excess, because it was im- possible for her to love otherwise. She was used to say — ' I am actuated by a love of ' pleasure consistent with virtue.^ Find- 127 f in:r that she was forsaken bv Phcion, and that she could neither reclaim him, or live happy without him, she resolved to take the Leucastan leap, and perish in the waves. It has justly been remarked of her — ' that death has not obliterated, as it ought, the reflections attempted to have been affixed to her character, since envif, which fastens on illustrious names, even v^^hen she expires, bequeaths her aspersions to that calumny which never dies.'—'' The famous busto of Alexander; the Etruscan Chimera; the admirable busto of Seneca ; and a Pomona, who seems in iBOtion, and her garments to be agitat- ed by the wind ; with many others, arrest- ed their attention, and excited the high- est admiration.
