FELLOW OF CLARE-HALL, CAMBRIDGE.

TO WHICH ARE ADDED

A COLLECTION OF SONGS

ORIGINAL SONGS.

To sway the judgment, while he sooths the ear;

To curb mad passion in its wild career;

To wake by sober touch the useful lyre,

And rule, with reason's rigour, fancy's fire:
Be this the Poet's praise.

MASON'S MusÆUS.
