ROBERT LLOYD
English poet
(1733 - 1764)

Judge of a jest when you have done laughing.
      - [Jesting]

Nonsense and noise will oft prevail,
  When honor and affection fail.
      - [Nonsense]

Opinion, which on crutches walks,
  And sounds the words another talks.
      - [Opinion]

With joy the parent loves to trace
  Resemblance in his children's face:
    And, as he forms their docile youth
      To walk the steady paths of truth,
        Observes them shooting into men,
          And lives in them life o'er again.
      - [Parents]

Who teach the mind its proper face to scan,
  And hold the faithful mirror up to man.
      - The Actor (l. 265) [Acting]
