True Merit needs no Foppington Difplay, In Peacock Plumes of vain Hyperbole ; But, like the Gems which light INDOSTAN'S Mines, With native Worth and matchlefs Radiance jfhines.
To warm the Paffions, and to wound the Heart, Why fhould we play the Scenery of Art ? Bring to aftonifh'd Optics from afar, The glitt'ring, dreadful Pageantry of War ? Why wound the harrow'd Ear with harfh Alarms, Hoarfe Drums, fhrill Trumpets, and the Clink of Arms? Why wake each tender Feeling of the Mind, To weep the ...felf-wrought Woes of Humankind ; H To 26 THE GENERAL.
To fwell the fallen Streams of widow'd Eyes, To echo childlefs Parents' burfting Sighs ?
Why fhow the dread Effects of rav'nous Pow'r ?
Why flame the City, or fubvert the Tow'r?
Why fhould we give a melting Reader Pain, .
With Streams of Blood and Mountains of the Slain ?
Why pidture, what the Brave muft weep to fee, Thofe dauntlefs Agents of Neceffuy ?
Who, while each Breaft with patriot Ardor glows, For Juftice fight yet weep o'er dying Foes.
