Sandy.
If the fates give me Katie,
And her I enjoy,
I have all my defires ;
Nought can me annoy r
For my charmer has every
Delight in fuch flore,
She'll make me more happy
Than fwain e'er before.
Love will find out the Way,
OVER the mountains,
And over the waves,
Over the fountains,
And under the graves ;
Over floods that are deeper*,
Which do Neptune obey j
Over rocks that are fteepefi?,
Love will find out the way.
Where there is no place
For the glow-worm to ly :
Where there is no fpace
For receipt of a fly ;
Where the midge dares not venture,.
Left herfelf fait me lay :
But if love come, he will enter,
And fbon find out his way.
You may efteem him
A child in his force ;
Or you may deem him
A coward, which is worfe:
But if ihe, whom love doth honour,
Be conceal'd from the day,
Set a thouland guards upon her,.
Love will find out the way.
