Or into the meadowes where

Mints perfume the gentle aire,

And where Flora spreads her treasure,

There they would beginn their measure.

If it chanc'd night's sable shrowds

Muffled Cynthia up in clowds,

Safely home they then would see him,

And from brakes and quagmires free him.

There are few such swaines as he

Now a days for harmonie."[355:A]
