NEAR Phillis, (our fair fugitive) there dwelled

One Eurilas, his nearest neighbour held;

His wife was Cloris; 'twas with her our dove

Took shelter from the Gascon's forward love,

Whose name was Dorilas; and Damon young,

(The Gascon's friend) on whom gay Cloris hung.

SWEET Phillis, by her manner, you might see,

From sly amours and dark intrigues was free;

The value to possess her no one knew,

Though all admired the lovely belle at view.
