. . . [Discussion of the virtues of poetry and painting.  77
lines followed by a poem of 9 verses beginning]
How lovely sacred pourtraiture appears!
What heavenly charms the bright delusion wears!
Lo, unveil'd glories blaze to sense confest,
Their dazling forms in shape and colours drest! 
. . .[12 lines]
Soft cherubs healing air, and harps apply;
And circling triumphs crowd the pitying sky 
. . .[40 lines, signed] The Plain-Dealer.
