Celestial Cupid, her famed son, advanced

[Holds his dear Psyche], sweet entranced 1005

After her wandering labors long,

Till free consent the gods among

Make her his eternal bride,

And from her fair unspotted side

Two blissful twins are to be born, 1010

Youth and Joy; so Jove hath sworn.

But now my task is smoothly done:

I can fly, or I can run
