And makes admiring friends of wondering foes.
Her dying husband to her care confides }
Affairs perplex’d; she reasons, she decides; 30}
If intricate her way, her walk discretion guides. }

Her health decay’d, her child, her husband, gone;
There she in peace reposes, there resumes
Her female duties, and in rest reblooms;
She is not one at common ills to droop,
Nor to vain murmuring will her spirit stoop.
