Address'd to Mrs . E DMONDES , upon her little Daughter ,
Miss
Mirth, Good-nature, sprightly Ease,
As much as tender Years can please;
Reason's early Dawn display'd,
In your little fav'rite Maid;
And I wish in honest Rhime,
Ev'ry graceful Charm with Time;
Duty's Call in ev'ry Stage,
May your little Fair engage;
Of Perfections grant the Mind,
Nor can ought so surely bind;
Dear to all, her Parents most,
Ev'ry Year a Grace to boast,
Such I wish my little Toast,
