Had this fair figure, which this frame displays, <br />Adorn'd in Roman time the brightest days, <br />In every dome, in every sacred place, <br />Her statue would have breathed an added grace, <br />And on its basis would have been enroll'd, <br />'This is Minerva, cast in Virtue's mould.'<br /><br />Samuel Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-seeing-a-bust-of-mrs-montague/
