ODE.
YOU merry Virgins, mad Maids,Of busie London Town,Abuse the Country sad Maids,And every Rusty Clown:Your Beauties all shall wither,You Bawds and Whores together.For if your PaintingWere but wanting,Where would your Beauty be?The Glances of your Eyes,By which you do surprize,Are all to Art, not Nature, due:All your Charms are untrue;Your faithless Vows do with your Paint agree.
