Classical Enigmas, Adapted to Every Month in the Year / Composed from the English and Roman Histories, Heathen Mythology and Names of Famous Writers: Meant to Amuse Youths of All Ages, and at the Same Time Exert Their Memories, by Calling to Mind What They Have Read at Different Times

The Man who boldly did aspire,

To steal the sun's etherial fire;

Those regions dark, you now may tell,

Rewarded, with enormous ears;

The Wind, whose blustering looks inform,

He rides upon the raging storm;
