60 The Fairy Godmothers. .

I will venture to promife you, you will /ike and
even Jove your occupations. And thus, though
you may not have fo many talents as Hermione,
you may call all thofe you do poffefs, into play,
and make them the folace, pleafure and refources
of your earthly career.

If you do this, I think you will not feel difpofed
to quarrel, as the Fairies did, with Ambrofia’s gift ;
for increafed knowledge ot the world, and your
own happy experience, will convince you more
and more that no Fairy Gift is fo well worth
having, as,

THE LOVE OF EMPLOYMENT.
