( 55 )
Who can the double pain endure ?
Or who mult not relign the field
To thee, celeftial maid, fecure
With Cupid's bow and Pallas' fhield ?
If then to thee fuch pow'r is giv'n,
Let not a wretch in torment live,
But fmile, and learn to copy heaven,
Since we mud fin ere it forgive.
Yet pitying heaven not only does
Forgive th'ofFender and th' ofFence,
But even itfelf appeas'd bertows,
As the reward of penitence.
