Marinda | ||
On Sight of the Present Empress.
Had Gloriana liv'd, when brightest CharmsSummon'd the Rival Princes all to Arms,
121
No more on Conquest had his Thoughts employ'd,
The Victors ne'er had deign'd new Worlds t'explore,
Or with young Ammon fondly wept for more.
Well may'st Thou Charles th'Iberian Throne resign,
All that is worth contending for is Thine.
Marinda | ||
