Matthew Prior - Venus Mistaken
Work rating: Low

When Cloe`s Picture was to Venus shown;
Surpriz`d, the Goddess took it for Her own.
And what, said She, does this bold Painter mean?
When was I Bathing thus, and Naked seen?

Pleas`d Cupid heard, and check`d His Mother`s Pride:
And who`s blind now, Mamma? the Urchin cry`d.
`Tis Cloe`s Eye, and Cheek, and Lip, and Breast:
Friend Howard`s Genius fancy`d all the rest.
