# Встречи Русского Клуба в Пекине

Ирина Викторовна Чуднова

Свиная Голова и Ноябрьская встреча Клуба.

Enough; and leave the rest to Fame!

"Tis to commend her, but to name.

Courtship which, living, she declined,

When dead, to offer were unkind:

Nor can the truest wit, or friend,

Without detracting, her commend.


To say - she lived a virgin chaste

In this age loose and all unlaced;

Nor was, when vice is so allowed,

Of virtue or ashamed or proud;

That her soul was on Heaven so bent,

No minute but it came and went;

That, ready her last debt to pay,

She summ`d her life up every day;

Modest as morn, as mid-day bright,

Gentle as evening, cool as night:

- `Tis true; but all too weakly said.

`Twas more significant, she`s dead.
