 | The Grecian Story |  |
Brisoldan was with Doning Food well pleas'd,
Since Hopeful Thoughts Both might by Fate be seiz'd;
Dead Pair perchance; or grant, but One should Die,
Clermanthe would that Killers Tongue Deny:
If Both escap'd Wounds may Love-suit defer
Some Mischeif claw'd Brisoldan's Heart howere.
