 | The Grecian Story |  |
Vendormes thought, his Travels large and free
Did nere present like beauteous Rarity;
Ask'd what she was: Delphine (since no danger)
Informed him to the full, found Noble Stranger.
After high Praise, strong Love conjoyn'd exprest,
Her Friendly help he sought, (then Lordly Guest)
For some acquaintance. She reply'd that Hour,
She would perform what lay within her Pow'r.
