On Seeing the Ladies Crux-Easton Walk in the Woods by the Grotto. poem – Alexander Pope

A poem by Alexander Pope (1688-1744) , the greatest English poet of “Augustan” or Georgian period

Authors the world and their dull brains have traced

To fix the ground where Paradise was placed;

Mind not their learned whims and idle talk;

Here, here’s the place where these bright angels walk.
