 | The Grecian Story |  |
Forth came the Bridegroom, Bride, their Hands entwin'd,
Whose Usher, Lord Thersander prov'd design'd:
So Lovely both, Transcendent Pair they seem'd,
Like Suns o'th' Globe, as either Sex, esteem'd,
Observ'd by All great Wisdome, Pow'r Divine,
So well could frame; as well did Match Combine:
She blush'd he smil'd, both chearful Hearts pourtray'd
In Looks Serene; conjoyned beams display'd.
