Should want the pow'r, the magic, which alone,
Can Conquests boast more fatal than her own?
For Man alone did earth produce her fruit,
The sole, as well as the superior, brute;
Does he alone the glorious licence claim,
To put the human off, and loose his Name?
Woman in Knowledge was the earlier curst,
And tasted of forbidden Fruit the first;
Prior to Man, the law she disobey'd,
And shall she want the Freedom she convey'd?
