Orpheus Caledonius*
XIV.
She raife and loot me in^
TH E Night her filent Sable wore.
And gloomy were the Skies 5
Of glitt 'ring Stars appear'd no more
Than thofe in Ne/lfs Eyes.
When at her Father's Yate I knock'dj
Where 1 had often been,
She, fhrowded only, with her Smock^
Arofe and loot me in.
Ealllock'd within her clofe Embrace^
She trembling flood afham'd j
Her fwelling Breaft and glowing Face^
And ev'ry Touch enflamedo
My eager Paffion I obey d,
Refolv*d the Fort to win 5
And her fond Heart was foon betray'd^
To yield and let me in.
Then, then, beyond expreffing^
Tranfporting was the Joy 5
