 | The History of Polindor and Flostella |  |
This strange Prophetick Scroul, as then produc'd
By good Rufin, such powerfull thoughts infus'd
(His Life and hers, things passed now, foretelling,
His double Swoond, her Love, new Plot revealing)
That, what before o're-sway'd through Reason, love,
Now Stamp'd with fatall Destiny did prove:
Thus, proper Mindes Silken cloaths, 'twas soon
Resolv'd by all, should fit th' intended Nun.
