GIGA

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]
