THE

POETICAL WORKS

OF

ALEXANDER POPE.

WITH

THE LIFE OF THE AUTHOR,

BY SAMUEL JOHNSON, L.L.D.

... POPE, the monarch of the tuneful train!
To whom be Nature's, and Britannia's praise!
All their bright honors rush into his lays!
And all that glorious warmth his lays reveal,
Which only poets, kings, and patriots feel!
Tho' gay as mirth, as curious thought sedate,
As elegance polite, as power elate;
Profound as reason, and is justice clear;
Soft as compassion, yet as truth severe;
As bounty copious, as persuasion weet,
Like Nature various and like Art complete;
So fine her morals, so sublime her views,
His life is almost equall'd by his Muse.
