"To Mrs. M. B. on Her Birthday" ---Alexander Pope (Written to Martha Blount in 1723) OH, be thou blest with all that Heav’n can send, Long Health, long Youth, long Pleasure, and a Friend: Not with those Toys the female world admire, Riches that vex, and Vanities that tire. With added years if Life bring nothing new, But, like a sieve, let ev’ry blessing thro’, Some joy still lost, as each vain year runs o’er, And all we gain, some sad Reflection more; Is that a birthday? ’t is alas! too clear, ’T is but the funeral of the former year. Let Joy or Ease, let Affluence or Content, And the gay Conscience of a life well spent, Calm ev’ry thought, inspirit ev’ry grace, Glow in thy heart, and smile upon thy face. Let day improve on day, and year on year, Without a Pain, a Trouble, or a Fear; Till Death unfelt that tender frame destroy, In some soft dream, or extasy of joy, Peaceful sleep out the Sabbath of the Tomb, And wake to raptures in a life to come.
