WRITTEN IN MISS PATTY MORES ALBUM. 1792.
In vain to live from age to age While modern bards endeavour, I w^rite my name in Pattj^'s page, And gain my point for ever.
A distich of similar character is said to have been penned by Cowper, " at the request of a gentleman who importuned him to write something in his pocket album " : I were indeed indifferent to fame, Grudging two lines t' immortalize my name.
EPITAPH ON FOP, A DOG BELONGING TO LADY THROCKMORTON. 1792.
Though once a puppy, and though... Fop by name, Here moulders one whose bones some honour claim.
No sycophant, although of spaniel race, And though no hound, a martyr to the chase — Ye squirrels, rabbits, leverets, rejoice !
Your haunts no longer echo to his voice ; This record of his fiite exulting view ; He died worn out with vain pursuit of you.
" Yes, " — the indignant shade of Fop replies — " And worn with vain pursuit, man also dies. " Robert Veel, born about 1648, has a poem on the " Vanity of Worldly Happiness, " the first stanza of which has much in common with the moral of Fop's epitaph.
