Female Ambition. 



Ambition is at distance 

 A goodly prospect, tempting to the view ; 

 The height delights us, and the mountain top 

 Looks beautiful, because 'tis nigh to heaven ; 

 But we ne'er think how sandy 's the foundation ; 

 What storms will batter, and what tempests shake it.

Man's love is of man's life a thing apart, 



'Tis woman's whole existence Byron. 



A bold ambition prompts my heart, 



The towering hope that love supplies, 



The wish in blessing to be blest. 



The meaner prospects I despise, 



That wealth, or rank, or power bestow. . Cartwright.

And they both must be broken together. >
