SONG

WRITTEN IN IMITATION OF COWLEY'S MISTRESS.

(_For the Mirror_.)


Oh, where didst borrow that last sigh,
And that relenting groan;
Ladies that sigh and not for love,
Usurp what's not their own.

Love's arrows sooner armour pierce
Than that soft snowy skin;
Thine eyes can only teach us love,
They cannot take it in.

J.H.L.H.[4]


[4] Yes--if confined to Anecdotes.--ED. M.
