To give it double power, weight, permanence, Woman adds virtues, talents, graces, sense ! When the fine tones of Laura's harp we hear, Joined by her voice, soft, flexible, and clear, By turns we gaze and listen, till we find Double enciiantment seize the captive mind. Her sweet accords have ceas'd ; a master plays ; His scientific skill demands our praise :. THE MERITS OF M-^OMEN^. 7 His rapid movements, complicated sounds, Of boldest execution shew the bounds. We hear with wonder, but no more ...we gaze ; For, where the charms which Laura's form displays ? Where those round arms, which love, with sly design, Has m. Oulded into symmetry so fine ? * Those arms which circling round, with matchless grace. In living chains her tuneful harp embrace ? Where is the roseate blush, the timid glance, Which speak the soul refined, each charm enhance ? No longer seen. But now, the concert o'er, Tlie ball commences. O'er the spacious floor Lucinda, Chloris, i\glea, see advance. With agile limbs, to tread the mazy dance, Their youthful forms appropriately arrayed, Their drapery of the lightest texture made ; Gold, pearls, and gems round each their radiance fling ; With flowers of tints that emulate the spring : Their waving motions, elegantly bland.
