[Would you know what's soft? I dare]
Would you know what's soft? I dareRemit you to the Down, or Ayre:
The Stars we all acknowledge bright,
The Snow too is exceeding white:
To please your sent, 't will not be hard
To present you bruised Nard:
And would you heavenly musick hear,
I'le call the Orbes to take your ear,
If old Pythagoras sing true.
But Ambrosia, heavenly dew
Divinely must affect your taste,
And Nectar is your drink at last.
But would you have all these delights in one,
Know but the fair Odelia, and 'tis done,
