CXXXIV
THE MINOUET
A Song
I
My lovely Charmer, will you DanceWith Strephon, your obedient Slave;
She look'd the kind consenting Glance,
And then her snowy Hand she gave.
II
The Youth with Joy the Nymph receiv'd,And gently press'd her tender Palm,
'Till Musick's Sound the Hand reliev'd,
And robb'd him of his healing Balm.
III
The Am'rous Swain, thro' eager Haste,Both Time and Measure did disdain:
Twice careless, he the Figure trac'd,
And snatch'd the snowy Hand again.
IV
The blushing Maid his Flame approv'd,And with like gen'rous Passion mov'd,
Again, they round the Figure glow'd,
Then turn'd, and curtsy'd; Strephon bow'd.
