To a Lady, who, with a Charming Air of Negligence, frequently, when spoken to reply'd—Yes, Sir

Consent, Love's darling blessing, dwells in this,
In this one soft, transporting Accent, Yes.
Still that dear Sound, from those dear Lips should flow,
O may they never, never Answer, No,
If of your late, kind Accents you repent,
When Love's the Theam, be silent; that's Consent.
