A Parody on Pope's Prologue to Cato.  Addressed to Mr. Henry
Bridges, Constructor to that elaborate piece of mechanism,
the Microcosm.
To sooth the soul by tender strokes of art,
To raise the genius, and to rouse the heart; 
To make mankind by harmony elate,
Soften the breast and banish direful hate.
. . . [31 lines, ending:]
Bridges! those sounds must ravish every ear,
Which Handel's self did not disdain to hear.
