COUNT BASIL: A TRAGEDY.

With gentle censure using but his faults
As modest means to introduce his praise;
For pity like a dewy twilight comes
To close th' oppressive splendour of his day;
And they who but admir'd him in his height,
His alter'd state lament, and love him fall'n.
[Exeunt.





END OF COUNT BASIL.
