To the Markiones of Newcastle upon her book of Orations

To the Markiones of Newcastle upon her book of Orations

Madam: if All the Rhetorick were gon
That Tully wrot or Famous Xenophon
Demostenes, or Chrisostom of Owld
Dropt from his silver Pen in words of Gould
'Twer All at life restor'd in the rich vaine
Presents it to the world in flowds again
Of so great Eloquence that All must say
Though you come last, you taught Those first the way.
