 | The History of Polindor and Flostella |  |
Love-stories then they'd tell; some smaller store
Flostella had, though Truths, and conn'd before
Knew squeamish Vestalls; these the Lady told
With such choyce winning count'nance, did unfold
With so kind Sympathy (to please) as though
Her self that Lover were, did sadly'st blow
Those Sighes from her: so musically stream'd
Each Passion forth, so true, Polindor seem'd
Now faln in Love again, transported so,
Forgetfull, he again could Sigh and Woo.

Her self that Lover were, did sadly'st blow
Those Sighes from her: so musically stream'd
Each Passion forth, so true, Polindor seem'd
Now faln in Love again, transported so,
Forgetfull, he again could Sigh and Woo.
