So Magdalen, in tears more wise

Dissolv'd those captivating eyes,

Whose liquid chains could flowing meet,

To fetter her Redeemer's feet.

Not full sails hasting loaden home,

Nor the chaste lady's pregnant womb,

Nor Cynthia teeming shows so fair,

As two eyes, swoln with weeping, are

The sparkling glance that shoots desire,

Drench'd in these waves, does lose its fire.
