The Plain-Dealer, No. 6.
[Discussion of the virtues of poetry and painting.  1
column, followed by a poem 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! 
  . . .  [8 lines]
  Soft cherubs healing air, and harps apply;
  And circling triumphs crowd the pitying sky 
  . . . [40 more lines]
