A. R._Classical Enigmas, Adapted to Every Month in the Year Composed from the English and Roman Histories, Heathen Mythology and Names of Famous Writers: Meant to Amuse Youths of All Ages, and at the Same Time Exert Their Memories, by Calling to Mind What They Have Read at Different Times

[Virgo]

The _goddess_ of the rosy morn,

Whose smiles with health, our cheeks adorn;

Then tell as quickly as you can,

The Poets _much enduring man_;

The _Youth_ who gave the cup on high,

When fair Hebe left the sky;

The _Muses name_, I'd have you find,

Most to astronomy inclin'd;

Then take the _River_, at whose sound,

The gods, eternally are bound;

The _Muse_, before whose comic eye,

Despair and melancholy fly;

The initials join'd, will surely find,

Amusement for your active mind,

And rightly plac'd, will soon appear

A month, within the circling year.
