By a Gentleman on seeing the

The Christian Heroe’sHero’s Looks here shine,
mixtmixed wtwith yethe Sweetness of yethe Stewart’s Line;
Courage wtwith mercy; wit wtwith virtue join’djoined ,
A beauto’usbeauteous person wtwith more beauto’usbeauteous mind.
How wise; how good qnwhen great; qnwhen low how brave,
Who knows to suffer, conquer &and to save.
Such Grace, such virtues are by Heav’nHeaven design’ddesigned,
To save Britannia, &and bless mankind.
