Oh B——le! or S—n—pe, P—m-ke; any Name,
That Arts, or Virtue; raises into Fame,
Be to my Muse a Friend; assist my Cause;
Be Friend to Science, fix'd on Nature's Laws.
On that alone, on Nature's perfect Plan,
I form my System, as I FIRST began.
By YOU inspir'd, I boldly lay the Line,
And ev'n am vain to call the Subject mine.
So Orpheus, once by more than human Sway,
Tam'd savage Beasts, or Men as wild as they;
