Blest with that charm, the certainty to please.

Oh ! She was good as she was fair,
None—none on earth above her!
As pure in thought as angels are:
To know her was to love her.

The good are better made by ill,
As odours crushed are sweeter still.

Thy chain of adamant can bind
That little world, the human mind,
And sink its noblest powers to impotence.

Ode to Superstition (1786)

Blest with that charm, the certainty to please.
