AIR by Mrs. CARGILL.

I

Yes, I long for the comical sight;
Such a pair of odd Lovers to meet;
When they're wedded in Fortune's despight,
How I'll laugh at the pleasant deceit!

O but once let the knot be fast join'd,
Low I'll curtsey and wish you both joy;
She, by chance, such a treasure to find,
You, by art, such a prize to decoy.
