Who does thy tender heart subdue,

Tell me, my Sappho, tell me, who?

Though now he shuns thy longing arms,

He soon shall court thy slighted charms:

Though now thy offerings he despise,

He soon to thee shall sacrifice;

Though now he freeze, he soon shall burn,

And be thy victim in his turn.

Celestial visitant, once more

Thy needful presence I implore!
