ODE XXX. To Venus.
Queen of Love! forsake a while
Paphos, and the Cyprian Isle;
To a brighter Shrine repair:
Glycera attends you there.
Paphos, and the Cyprian Isle;
To a brighter Shrine repair:
Glycera attends you there.
Let each Nymph and every Grace
And young Cupid fill the Place,
Youth by Beauty made polite,
With the nimble God of Wit.
