On Mrs. Anne Prideaux, Daughter of Mr. Doctor Prideaux, Regius Professor

SHE DIED AT THE AGE OF SIX YEARS .

Nature in this small volume was about
To perfect what in woman was left out;
Yet fearful lest a piece so well begun
Might want preservatives, when she had done,
Ere she could finish what she undertook,
Threw dust upon it, and shut up the book.
