Timagoras, Parrhasius, Polygnote,

  Protogenes, renowned Apollodore,

  Timanthes, and Apelles, first of note,

  Zeuxis and others, famed heretofore,

  Whose memory down the stream of Time will float,

  While we their wreck and labours lost deplore,

  Whose fame will flourish still in Fate's despite,

  (Grammercy authors!) while men read and write.
