SONG.
[Artless words of unfeign'd passion]
Artless words of unfeign'd passion
With harmonious numbers join'd,
Soothly try your soft persuasion
On Eliza's gentle mind!
With harmonious numbers join'd,
Soothly try your soft persuasion
On Eliza's gentle mind!
For her ear alone intended,
Other censure nought regard:
If by her you are commended,
'Tis enough for your reward.
Other censure nought regard:
If by her you are commended,
'Tis enough for your reward.
But why thus you seek to move her,
Strive not further to explain!
If her heart will not discover,
You or I should tell in vain.
Strive not further to explain!
If her heart will not discover,
You or I should tell in vain.
