Bold to attempt, and happy to excell,
His num'rous Verse the Huntsman's Art shall tell.
From him, ye British Youths, a vig'rous Race,
Imbibe the various Science of the Chace;
And while the well-plan'd System you admire,
Know, Brunswick only could the Work inspire:
A Georgic Muse awaits Augustan Days,
And Somerviles will sing, when Frederics give the Bays.

John Nixon.
