The Poetical Works of the Right Hon. George Granville, Lord Lansdowne/17
WRITTEN UNDER
MRS. HARE’S NAME
UPON A DRINKING-GLASS.
The gods of Wine, and Wit, and Love, prepare,
With cheerful bowls, to celebrate the fair;
Love is enjoin’d to name his fav’rite toaſt,3
And Hare ’s the goddeſs that delights him moſt:
Phœbus approves, and bids the trumpets ſound,
And Bacchus, in a bumper, ſends it round.6
