(The following lines taken from a late publish'd book,
intitled, A Paraphrase on the Oeconomy of Human Life, may
not be unacceptable to many of our readers.)
  To favour'd man is understanding giv'n--
  Tho noblest gift that e'er came down from heav'n--
  Dispens'd in such proportions to mankind,
  As pleas'd the wisdom of the sov'reign mind?
. . . [42 more lines] The above paraphrase may be had of
Green and Russell, in Queen-Street, (Price two shillings.)
