| - | |
| The man who feels the dear disease | A |
| Forgets himself neglects to please | A |
| The crowd avoids and seeks the groves | A |
| And much he thinks when much he loves | A |
| Press'd with alternate hope and fear | B |
| Sighs in her absence sighs when near | B |
| The gay the fond the fair the young | C |
| Those trifles pass unseen along | D |
| To him a pert insipid throng | D |
| But most he shuns the vain coquette | E |
| Contemns her false affected wit | E |
| The minstrel's sound the flowing bowl | F |
| Oppress and hurt the amorous soul | F |
| 'Tis solitude alone can please | A |
| And give some intervals of ease | A |
| He feeds the soft distemper there | G |
| And fondly courts the distant fair | G |
| To balls the silent shade prefers | A |
| And hates all other charms but hers | A |
| When thus your absent swain can do | E |
| Molly you may believe him true | E |
