Poems by Anne Kingsmill Finch
The Dog And His Master
... And fairly stake their Necks against your Wealth, ...
The Equipage
... Justice first, in Harness strong, ...
The Executor
... And nicely kept th' Account of the expected Store: ...
The Hog, The Sheep, And Goat, Carrying To A FAIR
... Whilst these poor Fools of short, and bounded View, ...
The Hymn
... ansporting then our Praise to Seats from whence you came! Praise Him, thou Sun in thy Meridian Force ...
The King and the Shepherd
... When his sole Neighbor, whilst he watch'd the Fold, ...
The LORD and the BRAMBLE
... That, like some Beaux whom Time does freeze, ...
The Lyon And The Gnat
... Though now in Ease dissolv'd! Who Guard, nor Centinel did need, ...
The Man And His Horse
... He with some Counterblow thy Head may hit ...
The Petition for an Absolute Retreat
... Be those windings and that shade!Courteous Fate! afford me there ...
The Philosopher, the Young Man, and his Statue
... The Figure was a Toy: Of no Advantage to the State, ...
The Phoenix
... Take all their Hints from Silvia's Eyes, ...
The Poor Man's Lamb
... A Lord as great, follow'd by hungry Grooms: For these must be provided sundry Meats, ...
The Shepherd And The Calm
... Scarce cou'd the Men escape, the Deep had all their Prey ...
The Spleen
... 'Til thinking Thee to've catch'd, Himself by thee was caught, ...
