When thou shalt be a little Deity on Earth.

Clo. I know not what it is to dwell in Courts,

But sure it must be fine, since you are there;

Yet I could wish you were an humble Shepherd,

And knew no other Palace than this Cottage;

Where I would weave you Crowns, of Pinks and Daisies,

And you should be a Monarch every May.

Fred. And, Cloris, I could be content to sit

With thee, upon some shady River’s Bank,

To hear thee sing, and tell a Tale of Love.
