From the Gentleman's Magazine.  The following lines were
wrote by Lady Craven, on dreaming that she saw her heart at
her feet.
  When nature, tir'd with thought, was sunk to rest,
  And all my senses were by sleep possess'd,
  Sweet sleep! that balmy comfort brings
  Alike to beggars and despotic Kings;
. . . [62 lines]
  'Tis I that trembling have taught thine ear
  To cherish music; and 'tis I appear
  In all its softest dress, when to the hearts
  Of my beholders my dear voice imparts
  Harmonic strains; . . . [24 more lines]
