Mary Barber - Verses sent to a Lady, Who Took Delight In Ridiculing A Person

Should you employ your Ridicule, br On those who Pity claim? br Think, Birtha, is the native Fool br For Wit a proper Theme? br br On Vice your hum'rous Vein display; br 'Tis meritorious there; br Or tow'ring Vanity allay; br But, O! Misfortune spare. br br With Wisdom who endows the Brain, br To thy Remembrance call; br Nor, while the Wretched you sustain, br Tincture their Cup with Gall.
