at_, &c. Maids like Turtles, love the Cooing, Bill and Murmur in their Wooing; Thus like you they start and tremble, And their troubled Joys dissemble: _Thus like you_, &c. Grasp the Pleasure while 'tis coming, Though your Beauty's now a blooming; Lest old time our Joys should sever, Ah! ah! they part, they part for ever: _Lest old time_, &c. _The Power of_ BEAUTY. [Music] In a Flowry Myrtle _Grove_, The solitary Scene of Love, On Beds of Vi'lets, all the Day, The Charming _Floriana_ lay; The little _Cupids_ hover'd in the Air, They peep'd and smil'd, and thought their Mother there. _Ph[oe]bus_ delay'd his Course a while, Charm'd with the spell of such a Smile, Whilst weary _Plough-men_ curs'd the stay, Of the too _Uxorious_ Day: The little _Cupids_ hover'd in the Air, They peep'd and smil'd, and thought their Mother there. But thus the _Nymph_ began to chide, "That Eye, you owe the World beside, You fix on me", then with a Frown She sent her drooping Lover down; With modest Blushes from the _Grove_ she fled, Painting the Evening with unusual Red. _The_ HUNT. [Music] Some in the Town go betimes to the _Downs_, To pursue the fearful Hare; Some in the Dark love to hunt in a _Park_, For to chace all the Deer that are there: Some love to see the Faulcon to flee, With a joyful rise against the Air; But all my delight is a Cunny in the Night, When she turns up her silver Hair. When she is beset, with a Bow, Gun, or Net, And finding no shelter for to cover her; She falls down flat, or in a Tuft does squat, 'Till she lets the Hunter get over her: With her breast she does butt, and she bubs up her Scut, When the Bullets fly close by her Ear; She strives not to escape, but she mumps like an Ape, And she turns up, _&c._ The Ferret he goes in, through flaggs thick and thin, Whilst Mettle pursueth his Chace; The Cunny she shows play, and in the best of her way, Like a Cat she does spit in his Face: Tho' she lies in the Dust, she fears not his Nest, With her full bound up Sir, career; With the strength that she shows, she gapes at the Nose, And she turns up, _&c._ The sport is so good, that in Town or in Wood, In a Hedge, or a Ditch you may do it; In Kitchen or in Hall, in a Barn or in a Stall, Or wherever you please you may go
