 | The Grecian Story |  |
Dardigues lik'd th' Imployment well, since found
Strong Pandar's Brain; good Advantageous Ground.
That Foreign Prince to Corinth being gone,
To th' Widow calld Sileuca walk'd anon,
Unfolded there the King's Desire, exprest,
How grand Reward she thence might reap, made blest,
If clos'd, compli'd or else, the Royal Hate,
And Anger both prov'd her oreclouding Fate.
