Thus merrily turn'd over a Glass.
The Crab does oft the tufted Ring possess,And crawls unseen about the heav'nly Place;
From whose soft Banks the whizing Waters fall,
And Show'rs of Love perform the Dev'l and all.
But when old Time has stretch'd the Channel wide,
And stop'd the Flux of the refreshing Tide,
'Tis Drudg'ry then in such a Pool to sail,
One Moment makes us glad to say, Farewel.
