The maid I love Is richly graced
All human beauties ever traced
By poet-hand or artist brush ....
Are hers. Her smile, her maiden blush,
Her soul-ht eyes, her sprightly wit,
Her tresses, through which sunbeams fit,
A mouth outlined like Oupid's bow,
A neck that rivals driven snow,
A voice like some dear instrument,
A breath ss sweet as meadow mint
These and thousand other charms
Have wakened in me loves alarms.
