ELIJAH FENTON English poet (1683 - 1730) Beware of flattery, 'tis a weed   Which oft offends the very idol--vice,     Whose shrine it would perfume.       - [Flattery] O blissful poverty!   Nature, too partial! to thy lot assigns     Health, freedom, innocence, and downy peace,       Her real goods; and only mocks the great,         With empty pageantries!       - [Poverty] Those elegant delights of jig and vaulting.       - [Dancing] Wedded love is founded on esteem.       - Mariamne [Love] Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
