YOU aft me why I love =^^
Goafk fife glorious Sun , r .
Why every day it rbu6d the world duth run ?
Ask time and tide why it doth ebb and flow.
Go ask the damask rose, why in June it blow,
Ask ice andhiil th& reason why ,they've cold.
Go aft the fading beauties why they will grow

they'll tell you it is fate, by which those things
doth move, '
Which caufeth th'enr to that.and, me to,love,

That is Io g'ood tho ? doated on b, me ;
Nor yet his tongue; which have the conquest

For that Alas, are equal with myown:
But yet Ilove this vain, this worthless man
With all the passions that a woman can.

IF marriage eve, is my lot in life,
And I. by fate am defin'd for a wife,
If I«o love's.foft power jnulL yield my heart,
May worth inspire and merit pointthe dart ;
May he to whom my heart and hand is given,
Have all thbfe blessings from indulgent heaven
May all those virtues in his foul be join'd
Good fcnfe adorn and honour guide hit mind.
His temper mild, his judgment found ahd clear ^
Courteous to all ahd to his friend finceie;
Gay lvithout rudeness, and polite with case, —
His rule good manners and his aim to,pleafe ;"
Proud to oblige, a stranger to deceit,
Ambitious rather tp be good than great ;
May winning candor, grace and heav'n born
Adcra each action of thq ^irtuo^ youths
Pleat'd with his love I'll cheerfully thro' life
Fulfil rhe humble duties of a wife—
And till his growing virtues cease to shine,
Pleaf'd I'll admire and drive to make him
mine. $
