sYLpHS OF KISSES.

Aband of Svlphs the anchor bear,
And place the hook With all their care,
Into a lovers hip:
The mighty windlass then they place
Upon the rudy female face,
So that it cannot slip.
The capstan bars with care are PLACID,
And then with mighty toll and haste,
They turned it round and round
The lover feels the magic strain,
He stayes and wonders at the pain,
The Fairies deal the wound.
Again he feels it pull and grip,
Until at last the anchored lip
Is to the windlass brought,
And in the region now of bliss.
He snatches straight an hasty kiss
And vanishes like thought.
Oh then how fast the windlass flies,
'Tis then unseen by Fairy eyes,
1t spins with so much force:
Should then a Svlph of ether gay,
But dare to interpose its way,
He'd fall a breathless corse.
