Of late at White's was young Florello seen!

How blank his look! how discompos'd his mien!

So hard it proves in grief sincere to feign!

Sunk were his spirits; for his coat was plain.

Next day his breast regain'd its wonted peace;

His health was mended with a silver lace.

A curious artist, long inur'd to toils

Of gentler sort, with combs, and fragrant oils,

Whether by chance, or by some god inspir'd,

So touch'd his curls, his mighty soul was fir'd.
