the wish - ghizela rowe - lady mary chudleigh lyrics

would but indulgent fortune send
to me a kind, and faithful friend
one who to virtue’s laws is true
and does her nicest rules pursue;
one pious, lib’ral, just and brave
and to his passions not a slave;
who full of honour, void of pride
will freely praise, and freely chide;
but not indulge the smallest fault
nor entertain one slighting thought:
who still the same will ever prove
will still instruct and still will love:
in whom i safely may confide
and with him all my cares divide:
who has a large capacious mind
join’d with a knowledge unconfin’d:
a reason bright, a judgement true
a wit both quick, and solid too:
who can of all things talk with easе
and whose converse will еver please:
who charm’d with wit, and inward graces
despises fools with tempting faces;
and still a beauteous mind does prize
above the most enchanting eyes:
i would not envy queens their state
nor once desire a happier fate
