For long with Gold and Pray’rs I flrove;

In vain, the cruel Maid to move.
WHILE thus in ‘penfive Mood I fate;

And mourn’d her unrelenting Hate ; I

A fudden Voice fur‘prizjd my Ear,

The well-known Voice of my proud Fair ;‘

But fuch was then the plaintive Strain,

As mine when breathingam’rous Pain ;

Or rather fuch, as cruel Maids

Breath forth in Pluto’s gloomy Shades;

When punifh’d there for {lighted Love;

And all the Deaths they d'eaEt above :.

:For hollow rung the difmal Sound,

As if it came from under Ground;

Again alarm‘d, to helg I flew ;

The Voice firaight to the Window drew;

Where, in a doler’ul, comiclz Plight,

My Tyrant Chloe {truck my Sight;

Not Chloe -;-=,-- for but part was feen;

Her Head and Arms were fall within :‘7

She, not content to dip and pray,

Would heme the ballasts §tr¢am convert?

MORAL"

THUS, Mm, while the City Dame,
In private Room, rewards your Flame,
While anxious Fears of dire Surprize,
Mix with your fiercefl Extac’ies; 7
Thy Friend, fecure beneath a Shade,
. Enjoys the humble country Maid,

 

Where none can witnel‘s to his Love,
Except his Fellows of the Grove,

Who feem to pour their melting Threats,
.To hail his Blifs with fei’tal Notes; a ' a
And murm’ring Zephyr: feem to {hare '
.The Tranfports of th’ expiring Fair:
But, when th'lenchanting Joys are pafl:
For (hart, ah !" very lhort they ran!
The M‘ufe, in a facetions Strain,

Gives them all back to him again:

He doubles thus Life’s narrow Space;
By running twice the deflin’d Racer,

FINIS.
