Un petit plus qui n'affiere-Vous en eftes durette.
On dit que,! &c. &c-

For my lofty looks- Fm the talk of'the town":* .
My pride and? my carriage they fay they can fee;; But a bridled-up head, and a quality frown,.
Is* very becoming a maid like me. *
On yefterday morning 1 left my repofe, As gay as a lark at the dawn of the day,.
And went to the bower of the blooming rofe,. Where it lourHhes fair in my garden gay..
0 little I thought a companion to find. Under the bower, or over the lee !:
But there was my love fo gentle and kind,
And-he was preparing.a.wreath forme..
1 gave to my love a çhaplèt I wove;,
On the evening before, by the light of the moon;. Which with joy he receiv'd, but he fcarcely believed:
That I had the goodnefe to grant him the boon.
