Sappho Redivivus—A Fragment
sappho redivivus—a fragment
by all i lov'd, ed and fot,
no friendly face e'er lights my squalid cot;
shunn'd, hated, wrong'd, unpitied, unredrest,
the mock'd "ation of the ser's jest!
ev'n the poor support of my wretched life,
snatched by the violence of legal strife.
oft grateful for my very daily bread
to those my family's once rge bounty fed;
a wele i their homely fare,
my griefs, my woes, my sighs, my tears they share:
(their vulgar souls uhe souls refin'd,
the fashioned marble of the polished mind).
