And charms on charms efpies :
Then all in raptures falls a Jlave,
Both to her n/oice and eyes.

A SONG,
To the Tune of, Iwijh my Love were In a Mire,
BL E S T as the immortal Gods is he,
The youth who fondly Jits hy thee,
And hears and fees thee all the while j
Softly fpeak and ftveetly fmile y &c
So fpoke and fmiPd the eaftern maid ;
Like thine, feraphick were her charms,
That in Circajia's vineyards ftray'd,
And bleft the wifeft monarchs arms.
A thoufand fair of high defert,
Strave to enchant the amorous king ;
But the Circafian gain'd his heart,
And taught the royal bard to fmg,
Clarinda
