In every state I did my mind content

And nicely did thy cross designs prevent;

Seeing thy plots did unsuccessful prove,

As a sure torment next, thou taught’st me love:

But here thou wert deceived too, for my swain,

As soon as he perceived, pitied my pain:

He met my passion with an equal fire,

Both sweetly languished in a soft desire:

Clasped in each other’s arms we sat all day,

Each smile I gave he’d with a kiss repay:
