Dear Knight of Plympton, teach me how To suffer, with unclouded brow
And smile serene as thine, The jest uncouth and truth severe ; Like thee to turn my deafest ear,
And calmly drink my wine.
Thou say st not only skill is gained, But genius too may be attained
By studious invitation ; T/iy temper mild, thy genius fine, Vil study till I make them mine
By constant méditation.
— Dean Barnard.
Of Reynolds ail good should be said, and no harm,
Though the heart is too frigid, the pencil too warm ;
Tel each fault from liis converse we still must disclaim,
As his temper 'tis peaceful, and pure as bis famé.
Nothing in it o'erflows, nothing ever is wanting ;
It nor chills like his kindness, nor glows like his paiiuing,
When Johnson by strength overpowers our mind,
When Montagu dazzles, and Burke strikes us blind,
To Reynolds well pleased for relief we must run,
Rejoice in his shadozv, and shrink from the sun.
— Mrs. Thrale.
Hère Reynolds is laid, and, to tell you my mind,
He has not left a zviser or better behind.
His pencil was striking, resistless, and grand;
His manners ivere gentle, complying, and bland ;
Still born to improve us in every part,
His pencil our faces, his manners our heart.
To coxcombs averse, yet most civilly steering ;
When they judged ivithout skill he was still hard of hearing ;
When they talked of their Raphaels, Correggios, and stuff,
He shifted his trumpet, and only took snuff,
By flattery unspoiled. ....
— Goldsmith.
