Silvia let's from the Crowd retire	A
For What to you and me	B
Who but each other do desire	C
Is all that here we see	B
	-
Apart we'll live tho' not alone	D
For who alone can call	E
Those who in Desarts live with One	F
If in that One they've All	E
	-
The World a vast Meander is	G
Where Hearts confus'dly stray	H
Where Few do hit whilst Thousands miss	I
The happy mutual Way	H
	-
Where Hands are by stern Parents ty'd	J
Who oft in Cupid's Scorn	K
Do for the widow'd State provide	J
Before that Love is born	K
	-
Where some too soon themselves misplace	L
Then in Another find	J
The only Temper Wit or Face	L
That cou'd affect their Mind	J
	-
Others but oh avert that Fate	J
A well chose Object change	M
Fly Silvia fly ere 'tis too late	J
Fall'n Nature's prone to range	M
	-
And tho' in heat of Love we swear	N
More than perform we can	O
No Goddess You but Woman are	P
And I no more than Man	O
	-
Th' impatient Silvia heard thus long	Q
Then with a Smile reply'd	J
Those Bands cou'd ne'er be very strong	Q
Which Accidents divide	J
	-
Who e'er was mov'd yet to go down	R
By such o'er cautious Fear	S
Or for one Lover left the Town	R
Who might have Numbers here	T
	-
Your Heart 'tis true is worth them all	E
And still preferr'd the first	J
But since confess'd so apt to fall	E
'Tis good to fear the worst	J
	-
In ancient History we meet	J
A flying Nymph betray'd	J
Who had she kept in fruitful Crete	J
New Conquest might have made	J
	-
And sure as on the Beach she stood	J
To view the parting Sails	U
She curs'd her self more than the Flood	J
Or the conspiring Gales	U
	-
False Theseus since thy Vows are broke	V
May following Nymphs beware	N
Methinks I hear how thus she spoke	V
And will not trust too far	P
	-
In Love in Play in Trade in War	W
They best themselves acquit	J
Who tho' their Int'rests shipwreckt are	P
Keep unreprov'd their Wit	J
