With heavenly raptures elevate the mind:
Not framed to raise a giddy, short-lived joy,
Whose false allurements, while they please, destroy;
But bliss resembling that of saints above,
Sprung from the vision of the' Almighty Love;
Firm, solid bliss, for ever great and new;
The more 'tis known, the more admired, like you;
Like you, fair nymph, in whom united meet
Endearing sweetness, unaffected wit,
And all the glories of your sparkling race,
While inward virtues heighten every grace.
By these secured, you will with pleasure read
""Of future judgment, and the rising dead;
Of time's grand period, heaven and earth o'erthrown,
And gasping Nature's last tremendous groan.""
These, when the stars and sun shall be no more,
Shall beauty to your ravaged form restore:
Then shall you shine with an immortal ray,
Improved by death, and brighten'd by decay.",,8558,"","""These purer thoughts, from gross alloys refined, / With heavenly raptures elevate the mind.""",Metal,2010-10-02 22:59:54 UTC,""

No, my Good Lord, my Courage is my Antidote against Despair, and keeps the Poyson from me; yet to a Soul less great than mine to see, the strange Revolves of Fate, the Court's Dishonour, the Ruin of our best Nobility, the danger of our Starving; all Provisions on pain of Death, being hindred to come near us; and this commanded by a Beggar's Brat; A base Plebeian moulded from a Dunghill!

HONOUR
'Tis I that Monarchs fire,
To do things great and bold.
I gen'erous Hearts Inspire,
To scorn the Power of Gold.
I charming Beauty grace,
And wanton Passion sway.
I Artful Merit raise
Above dull common Clay.
More, more then all, 'tis I your Arms maintain,
I, in the Breast of Gracious Anna reign,
And Blessings shower without controul.
I'm all, and all, in every part;
To Empires body I'm the Heart,
Where Anna is the Soul.
