- | |
When wanton fair the snowy orb you throw | B |
I feel a fire before unknown in snow | B |
E'en coldest snow I find has pow'r to warm | C |
My breast when flung by Julia's lovely arm | D |
T'elude love's pow'rful arts I strive in vain | E |
If ice and snow can latent fires contain | E |
These frolics leave the force of beauty prove | F |
With equal passion cool my ardent love | G |
