Lines On Lady W---- Appearing At The Exhibition

________________________________________________
Title:     Lines On Lady W---- Appearing At The Exhibition
Author: Sir John Carr [More Titles by Carr]

When lovely Delphine sought the crowded scene,
The painter's mimic pow'r no longer mov'd;
All turn'd to gaze upon her beauteous mien,
None envied her, for, as they look'd, they lov'd.

Amid the proud display of forms so fair,
Of each fine tint the pencil can impart,
Nature with rapture seem'd to lead her there,
To prove how she could triumph over Art.







[The end]
