The Is more Chameleon to ' catch s true than colour the , you real all hue will of agree me . , Now red easy as a lobster , just boiled to a turn In a deep-glowing furnace of blushes I burn , ; Now I stalk white like as a spectre the foam fresh of the loosed rock from -kissing the grave wave . , Enticing Gay , sad ; provoking gentle , fierce storm ; wise troubled , foolish serene ; sharp , green ;
Proud ____ _¦ , humble *_ , _» _¦ ; harsh _¦ ; , mild - W _ - ; now noble , , now ; mean ; Such a cento of qualities never was seen .

Thoug I was born h weak to be is my ruled body , yet and I govern weaker mankind my mind , ; The At my monarch feet as a whose suppliant frown bows e ' en his the proud bravest head might ; dread , The The tyrant humblest , to of whom slaves all owned the world my fancy knelt in as awe law , ; And Unarmed the conquests , I have crushed of years whole have armies regained ' vast in mi one ght nig , ht .
