NUMBER:6188
AUTHOR:Edward Coate Pinckney (1802–1828)
QUOTATION:I fill this cup to one made up
  Of loveliness alone,
A woman, of her gentle sex
  The seeming paragon;
To whom the better elements
  And kindly stars have given
A form so fair, that, like the air,
  ’T is less of earth than heaven.
ATTRIBUTION:A Health.
