Answer To Stanzas Addressed To Lady Hesketh By Miss Catharine Fanshawe, In Returning A Poem

To be remembered thus is fame,
And in the first degree;
And did the few like her the same,
The press might sleep for me.

Of many a Grecian belle,
Was once preserved -- a richer hoard,
But never lodged so well.
