The poems and translations of Sir Edward Sherburne (1616-1702) | ||
A Maid in Love with a Youth blind of one Eye.
Though a Sable Cloud benightOne of thy fair Twins of Light,
Yet the other brighter seems,
As 't had robb'd its Brother's Beams;
Or both Lights to one were run,
Of two Stars, now made one Sun.
Cunning Archer! who knows yet
But thou wink'st my Heart to hit!
Cloze the other too, and All
Thee the God of Love will call.
