The following ode, written by Mr Smart on the 5th of December (being the birthday of a beautiful young lady), is much to be admired for the variety and barmo ny of the numbers, as well as for the beauty of the thoughts, and the elegance and delicacy of the compli ment. It has great fire, and yet great fweetnefs, and is the happy iltue of genius and judgment united.
