Impromptu Written under a Picture of the Countess of Sandwich
Written under a picture of the
COUNTESS OF SANDWICH DRAWN IN MAN'S HABIT ,
When Sandwich in her sex's garb we see,
The queen of Beauty then she seems to be;
Now fair Adonis in this male-disguise,
Or little Cupid with his mother's eyes:
No style of empire chang'd by this remove,
Who seem'd the goddess seems the god of Love.
