GILBERT WEST.

WITH THE LIFE OF THE AUTHOR,

And you () WEST !-
With Learning's feast my drooping mind Mall cheer,
Glad to escape from Love to such a friend. HAMMOND

O goodly Discipline! from Heav'n ysprong,
Parent of Science, queen of Arts refin'd!
To whom the Graces and the Nine belong,
0! bid those Graces, in fair chorus join'd
With each bright Virtue that adorns the mind,
O! bid the Mures, thine harmonious train,
Who ty thy aid erit humaniz'd mankind,
Infpire, diret, and moralize, the train
That doth essay to tezch by treasures how to gain.
