ious Swan_, in weeping strains,
And tell _Pastora's_ Death to mournful Swains.
Or with more pleasing Charms, with softer Airs
Sweeten our Passions, and delude our Cares.
Or let thy _Satyr_ grin with half a Smile,
And jeer in _Easy Etherege's_ Style.
Let _Manly Wycherly_ chalk out the Way,
And Art direct, where Nature goes astray.
'Tis not for Thee to Write of Conqu'ring Kings,
The Noise of Arms will break thy Am'rous Strings.

The _Teian Muse_ invites Thee from above
To lay Thy Trumpet down, and sing of Love.
Let _MONTAGUE_ describe _Boyn's_ swelling Flood
And purple Streams fatned with Hostile Blood.
O Heavenly Patron of the needy Muse!
Whose powerful Name can nobler heat infuse.
When You _Nassau's_ bright Actions dar'd to see,
_You_ was the _Eagle_, and _Apollo He_.
But when He read You, and Your Value knew,
_He_ was the _Eagle_, and _Apollo You_.
Both spoke the Bird in her _AEthereal_ height,
The _Majesty_ was _His_, and _Thine_ the _Flight_.
Both did _Apollo_ in His Glory shew,
The Silver _Harp_ was _Thine_, and _His_ the _Bow_,

So may _Pierian Clio_ cease to fear,
When _Honour_ deigns to sing, and _Majesty_ to hear!
So may she favour'd live, and always please
Our _Dorset's_, and Judicious _Normanby's_!

Nor does the _Coronet_ alone defend
The Muses Cause: The _Miter_ is Her Friend.
Can we forget how _Damon's_ lofty Tongue
Shook the glad Mountains? how the Valleys rung
When _Rochester's Seraphick Shepherd_ Sung.
How _Mars_ and _Pallas_ wept to see the Day
When _Athens_ by a Plague dispeopled lay.
What Learning perish'd, and what Lives it cost!
Sung with more Spirit than all _Athens_ lost.
Nor can the _Miter_ now conceal the Bays,
For still we view the _Sacred Poet's_ praise.
So tho' _Eridanus_ becomes a Star
Exalted to the Skies, and shines afar,
Below he loses nothing but his Name,
Still faithful to his Banks, his Stream's the same.

But smile, my Muse, once more upon

Oscar Fingal OFlahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 30 November 1900) was an Irish playwright, novelist, poet, and author of short stories. Known for his biting wit, he was one of the most successful playwrights of late Victorian London, and one of the greatest celebrities of his day. Raised in Dublin he later studied at Trinity College, Dublin and Magdalen College, Oxford. After graduating with honours he spent the next few years in London, the United States and Paris. He married Constance Lloyd in 1884 and the couple had two sons. As the result of a widely covered trial, Wilde suffered a dramatic downfall and was imprisoned for two years of hard labour after being convicted of the offence of gross indecency.

Various, or Various Production, is an English dubstep/electronic music duo formed in 2003. The group blends samples, acoustic and electronic instrumentation, and singing from a revolving cast of vocalists. Its members, Adam and Ian, purposefully give very little information about the group or themselves, and tend to do little in the way of self-promotion.[1] Nevertheless, the group began winning critical acclaim with its single releases in 2005 and 2006.[2] Their full-length for XL, The World is Gone, arrived in July of 2006.[3][4][5][6][7] They have released a large number of vinyl EPs and 7 records, as well as digital exclusives for Rough Trade, iTunes, and Boomkat.[8]
