With sweetest sounds Corelli’s art display;’
1718.
And then adds a picture of the scene:
‘To visit and take tea the well-dressed fair
May pass the crowd unruffled in her chair;
No dust or mire her shining foot shall stain,
Or on the horizontal hoop give pain.
For beaux and belles no city can compare,
Nor shew a galaxy so made, so fair;
The ears are charmed, and ravished are the eyes,
