NOW I'm resolv'd to Love no more,

But Sleep by Night, and Drink by Day;

Your Coyness Chloris pray give o'er,

And turn your tempting Eyes away:

I'll place no happiness of mine,

On fading Beauty still to court;

And say she's glorious and divine,

When there's in Drinking better sport.

Love has no more Prerogative,

To make me desperate Courses take;
