LAVIA, to you with Safety I commend

This Verfe, the fecret Failing of your Friend.

To your good Nature I fecurely truft,

Who know, that to conceal, is to be juft.

The Mufe, like wretched Maids by Love undone,

Fears the cenforious World, and Lofs of Fame.

Pity the Fools, whom Love or Verfe undo)
Whofe fond Compaffion fooths her in the Sin,
And fets her on to venture once again.

I

Sure.
