And the fair triumphed, when the brave o'ercame.

Then, as you meant to spread another way

By land your conquests, far as his by sea,

Leaving our southern clime, you marched along

The stubborn north, ten thousand Cupids strong.

Like commons the nobility resort,

In crowding heaps, to fill your moving court:

To welcome your approach the vulgar run,

Like some new envoy from the distant sun;

And country beauties by their lovers go,
