Poem by Robert Craggs, Earl Nugent

Epigram 17. VAINLY hath heaven denounc'd the woman's woes

VAINLY hath heaven denounc'd the woman's woes,
Thou know'st no tender cares, no bitter woes,
Unfelt your offspring comes, unfelt it goes.

1. Epigram 1. I Lov'd thee beautiful and kind
2. Epigram 7. I Swore I lov'd, and you believ'd
3. Epigram 2. SInce first you knew my am'rous smart
4. Epigram 5. THO' cheerful, discreet, and with freedom well bred
5. Epigram 12. WE thought you without titles great
