XLII
A DIALOGUE
Mars.]
Cupid, I hear thou hast improv'd
Thy little Art of War;
Old Men conceit they may be lov'd,
And Cripples win the Fair.
Thy little Art of War;
Old Men conceit they may be lov'd,
And Cripples win the Fair.
False powder'd Beaux at distance kill,
And every Fop writes Songs;
Musick imploys her utmost Skill,
And to thy Camp belongs.
And every Fop writes Songs;
Musick imploys her utmost Skill,
And to thy Camp belongs.
Cupid.]
Great God of War, why shou'd not I
As well as you advance,
And by new Ways make Lovers dye,
While you bomb Towns in France.
As well as you advance,
And by new Ways make Lovers dye,
While you bomb Towns in France.
40
William and Louis are your Pride,
Belle Dives, and Stowel mine,
Whose Batteries Men can less abide
Than those upon the Rhine.
Belle Dives, and Stowel mine,
Whose Batteries Men can less abide
Than those upon the Rhine.
