ODE XII.
[What will you, that I do to you]
What will you, that I do to you,Prattling Swallow? what is due
For this, thy idle chirruping?
Will you, that I take your wing,
And with the scissors cut away?
Or rather that within you slay,
Your tongue, of old as Tereus did,
And after evil so forbid?
Why, from out my happy dreams,
Fill'd with the best of gentle themes,
Hast thou, by thy early lay,
Soft Bathylla stol'n away?
