To the Lady who sends me all her good Wishes.
Suppose, that the sun had a tongue, and shou'd say,May your journey be bless'd, with a very fine day:
Then, withdrawing his face, slip aside, with his light,
And surround me, at once, with the coldness of night;
What would Florimel say, to this trick of the sun?
I would say, cry'd the charmer, 'twas cruelly done.
Would you so, answer'd I?—have a care what you own,
Who have wish'd me all blessings, yet granted me none.
