What shou'd I do in this Uncertainty?
I had not Phillis, nor Alappe nigh,
Who from the Call of their inviting Damms,
Might now secure at home my weaned Lambs,
And Numbers on the crowded Plain appear,
These youthful Shepherds fam'd Dispute to hear;
I idly too prefer their light Affairs
Before my Bus'ness, and more serious Cares.
I had not Phillis, nor Alappe nigh,
Who from the Call of their inviting Damms,
Might now secure at home my weaned Lambs,
And Numbers on the crowded Plain appear,
These youthful Shepherds fam'd Dispute to hear;

Before my Bus'ness, and more serious Cares.
