[Love! inform thy faithful creature]
Love! inform thy faithful creature
How to keep his fair-one's heart;
Must it be by truth of nature?
Or by poor dissembling art?
How to keep his fair-one's heart;
Must it be by truth of nature?
Or by poor dissembling art?
Tell the secret, shew the wonder,
How we both may gain our ends;
I am lost if we're asunder,
Ever tortur'd if we're friends.
How we both may gain our ends;
I am lost if we're asunder,
Ever tortur'd if we're friends.
