"When e'er She gives a kindly glance
I blefs the happy Omen
And often think, for to advance
Hoping fhel j)rove a woman.
But dubious of my own defert
My Sentiments I fmother
'With fecret f ighs I vex my Heart
For fear fhe loves another
Thus fung poor Edie by a- burn
And CHRISTY did overhear him
She wou'd not let her lover mourn
But e'er he wilt drew near him
She fpoke her Favours with alook
"Which left no room to doubt her
He "wifely the nice Minute took
And fLung his arms about her
My CHE.ISTY witnefs gentle Stream
Such Iqys from tears arifing
I wifh this may not be a Dream.
O love thou moft furprifing
Time was too precious now for talk
This _point of all his wifhes
He wou'd not with Set fpeeches balk
But fpent it all on kifses
