Quotes
Ah, Chloris! could I now but sitAs unconcern'd as whenYour infant beauty could begetNo happiness or pain!When I the dawn used to admire,And praised the coming day,I little thought the rising fireWould take my rest away.
Poem: Child and Maiden
Why then should I seek further store,And still make love anew?When change itself can give no more,'Tis easy to be true.
Poem: To Celia
