Nor fails She to exalt him to the Stars,
And fix him there among the Branched rew
(Taurus, and Aries, and Capricorn,)
The greatest Monster of the Zodiac;
Or for the loss of Anxious Worldly Pelf,
Or Celia's scornful slights, and cold disdain
Had check'd his Am'rous flame with coy repulse,
The worst Events that mortals can befal;
By cares depress'd in pensive Hypoish mood,
With slowest pace, the tedious minutes Roll.
Thy charming sight, but much more charming Gust
New Life incites, and warms our chilly Blood,
Strait with pert Looks, we raise our drooping Fronts;
And pour in Chrystal pure, thy purer Juice,
With chearful Countenance, and steady Hand
Raise it Lip-high, then fix the spacious Rim
T' expecting Mouth, and now with Grateful Tast,
The ebbing Wine glides swiftly o're the Tongue,
The circling Blood with quicker motion flies;
Such is thy pow'rful influence, thou strait
Dispell'st those Clouds that lowring dark eclips'd
The whilom Glories of our gladsom Face,
And dimpled Cheeks, and sparkling rolling Eyes,
Thy chearing Virtues, and thy worth proclaim.
So
