epigram on seeing miss fontenelle in a favourite character

　　sweet naivete of feature,

　　simple, wild, enchanting elf,

　　not to thee, but thanks to nature,

　　thou art acting but thyself.

　　wert thou awkward, stiff, affected,

　　spurning nature, torturing art;

　　loves and graces all rejected,

　　then indeed thou'd'st act a part.
