W SONG. HEN Fanny blooming fair First caught my ravish'd fight, Struck with her shape and air, I felt a ftrange delight: Whilft eagerly I gaz'd, Admiring ev'ry part, And ev'ry feature prais'd, She stole into my heart. What flames my nerves invade, When I behold the breaft Of that too charming maid Rife, fuing to be prefs'd! Venus round Fanny's waist, Who dance the circle round. Who fhall her zone unloofe ! That blifs to all, but me, May heaven and she refuse. SONG. W Henever, Chloe, I begin Your heart, like mine, to move, You tell me of the crying fin Of unchafte lawless love. How can that paffion be a fin, Which make a heaven on earth? Το To wed, mankind the priests trepann'd, By fome fly fallacy, And difobey'd God's great command, You fay that love's a crime; content: More joy's in heav'n if one repent, Sin then, dear girl, for heaven's fake, Repent and be forgiven; INDEX, Y 2 A INDEX to the First Volume.
