How strong thy unsupported strength,

From pleasure to perlition!
How oft thoust lured poor n,ortais on,
Dy somo concealed attraction.
How oft, too. like fair Circe!s wand,
Thy touch has caused distractions.
How many are thy charming crimes,
Thy guilty destinations,
THY virgin virtues, modest signs.
Mere mocking Vaccinations
Most dangerous when most domuro,
Most wicked when most winning,
Thou maks't thy trusting lover doubt
If such sin be SHINING.
Thy victim keeps thee next his heart
Long after thou'st deceived him,
Aud fondles in his breast tho dart
That of his joy bereaved him.
Ho'll lowering stand 'twixt lovo and hate,
His dear tormentor nursing;
Will curse thee for his cruel fate,
Yet tiss thco oen while cursing.
