He never had the charming girl retained,

Who, young and artless, would your heart have gained.

HER name was Alibech, if I recollect;

Too innocent, deceptions to detect.

One day this lovely maiden having read,

How certain pious, holy saints were led,

The better to observe religious care,

To seek retirement in some lorn repair,

Where they, like Heav'nly Angels, moved around,

Some here, some there, were in concealment found,
