Bring thy quiver to her aid;

With equal ardour wound the swain;

Beauty should never sigh in vain.

Let him feel the pleasing smart,

Drive the arrow through his heart:

When one you wound, you then destroy;

When both you kill, you kill with joy.

Hunc. O Tom Thumb! Tom Thumb! wherefore art thou Tom Thumb?[119]

Why hadst thou not been born of royal race?
