Are the first at our weakness to sneer.
Then should not gladly, with candour receive,
The advice which affection bestows;
For sincerity rarely we meet with in life,
Few will aid us, but numbers oppose.
As to you, I am bound by the dearest of ties,
My sister, as well as my friend:
No undue command did I mean to usurp,
Nor ever design to offend.
Then let us united in harmony live,
