[Flush'd with bloming beauty's pride]
Flush'd with bloming beauty's pride,
Fly not, fly not, lovely maid,
The waving silver of my head,
No more my gentle vows deride.
Fly not, fly not, lovely maid,
The waving silver of my head,
No more my gentle vows deride.

Mark how pleasing to the sight,
The chequer'd chaplet on my brow!
Mark how the blushing roses glow,
Twin'd with the lily's glistening white!
The chequer'd chaplet on my brow!
Mark how the blushing roses glow,
Twin'd with the lily's glistening white!
