( 6 )

If he then of my tricks should know,
it would make him wond'rous sad,
'Twould fill his heart with jealousy,
and make him run horn mad.

Then instead of kicks and blows,
a kiss to him she gave,
And a guinea saying, When this is done,
thou more of me shalt have.

If thou wilt not thy master tell,
so keep it close, you shall
Have money of me, when thou wilt,
and I'll be at thy call.


DAMON & FLORELLA, a Dialogue

HE.
Cast, my love, thine eyes around,
See the sportive lamkins play,
Nature daily decks the ground,
All in honour of the May.
Like the sparrow and the dove,
Listen to the voice of love.

SHE.
Damon, thou hast found me long,
List'ning to thy foolish tale,
And thy soft persuasive tongue
Often held me in the dale,
Take. Oh! Damon, while I live,
All which virtue ought to give.
