Transcription:
Fair Lady, if your Valentine
With more than usual Merit shine,
That like the Comets lengthen’d Blaze
Attracts the universal gaze,
Heed not when Rumours [Tole] Voice
Would cloud the Lustre of your Choice,
And find in Genius splendors bright
Some dire Portent, some lurid Light.
Be yours the Philosophic Eye
That loves the Wonders of the Sky,
Deems not each Path e[x]centric Error
Nor sullies Glory’s Train with Terror.
