From whence his Mother rose;
No time his Slaves from Doubt can free,
Nor give their Thoughts repose:''

Like metals in the mine,

Than Youth conceal'd in thine.''

To Celia
|
 |
NOT, Celia, that I juster am
Or better than the rest!
For I would change each hour, like them,
Were not my heart at rest.
But I am tied to very thee
By every thought I have;
Thy face I only care to see,
Thy heart I only crave.
