 | The Grecian Story |  |
Her Beauteous World which Slumbers should o'ersway;
Curtains being drawn expell'd did seem the day:
When purest Lids, each Christal Box as 'twere,
Those daintiest Gems her Eyes inclosed there.
(Conform'd withal) till Sleep with soft imbraces
From Brain and Heart sad thoughts, distemper chaces.
