Unskill’d in Hellebore, if thou shouldst try
To mix it, and mistake the quantity,
The rules of physick would against thee cry. Dryden.Unskill’d and young, yet something still I writ,
Of Ca’ndish beauty, join’d to Cecil’s wit. Matthew Prior.Not eastern monarchs on their nuptial day,
In dazzling gold and purple shine so gay,
As the bright natives of th’ unlabour’d field,
Unvers’d in spinning, and in looms unskill’d. Richard Blackmore.Poets, like painters, thus unskill’d to trace
The naked nature, and the living grace,
With gold and jewels cover every part,
And hide with ornaments their want of art. Alexander Pope.
