Thou art that Man whom Love has rais’d above him;

Whom every Grace and every Charm thou hast

Conspire to make thee mightier to my Soul;

And Oliver, illustrious Oliver,

Was yet far short of thee.

Lov. He was the Monarch then whose Spoils I triumph in.

L. Lam. They were design’d too for Trophies to the young and gay.

Ah, Loveless! that I cou’d reward thy Youth

With something that might make thee more than Man,

[As well as to give] the best of Women to thee— [Rises, takes him by the Hand, leads him to the Table. He starts.
