That soothe the Fancy and that charm the Eye. 20
All the fair Arts that give a Grace to Life
Are hers: she sings, she speaks, she moves with Grace;
Nor charms she less, the Mother and the Wife,
And still maintains the Virtues of her Race.
Happy the fair Possessor of that Skill—
When Life’s Endowment, but not Life’s Employ;
When used for Pleasure and resigned at Will,
The aid of Home-felt and domestic Joy!
