Poem by Robert Craggs, Earl Nugent

Epigram 5. THO' cheerful, discreet, and with freedom well bred

THO' cheerful, discreet, and with freedom well bred,
She never repented an idle word said:
Securely she smiles on the forward and bold,
They feel what they owe her, and feel it untold.

1. Epigram 7. I Swore I lov'd, and you believ'd
2. Epigram 3. MY heart still hovering round about you
3. Epigram 10. WHILE Lucy, chaste as mountain snows
4. Epigram 17. VAINLY hath heaven denounc'd the woman's woes
5. Epigram 2. SInce first you knew my am'rous smart
