Love disguis'd.
[I]
Love in disguise the other daySought with sly cunning to betray
Some wandring Heart or other
With fair pretence, and Flateries Fine;
He came (alas!) and seis'd on mine,
But took it for another.
II
Now in his Chains I fettered lye,But cannot tell for what, or why;
No Plaintiffe will declare;
Imprisonment I must imbrace
For doting on some killing Face
That will not now appear.
III
Clorinda too, soon as She heardThat I was Tain, had no regard,
But cast her Frowns to grieve me;
To satisfie her cold Disdain,
She lets me still live in my pain,
And will no more releive me.
