] SONGS OF ENGLAND AND IRELAND.
CYNTHIA.
Bright Cynthia's power divinely great. What heart is not obeying ?
A thousand Cupids on her wait And in her eyes are playing.
She seems the queen of love to reign For she alone dispenses Such sweets, as best can entertain The guest of all the senses.
Her face a charming prospect brings ; Her breath gives balmy blisses : I hear an angel when she sings.
And taste of Heaven in kisses.
Four senses thus she feasts with joy. From Nature's richest treasure : Le...t me the other sense employ And I shall die with pleasure.
[In Southerne's " Oroonoko, "] ]34 SONGS OF ENGLAND AND IRELAND.
IN VAIN YOU TELL.
MATTHEW PRIOK.
Born 1664— Died 1721.
In vain you tell your parting lover — You wish fair winds may waft him over : Alas ! what winds can happy prove. That bear me far from what I love ? Can equal those that I sustain, From slighted vows and cold disdain ?
Be gentle, and in pity choose To wish the wildest tempests loose.
That, thrown again upon the coast Where first my ship-wreck'd heart was lost, I may once more repeat my pain ; Once more in dying notes complain Of slighted vows and cold disdain.
