SONG
[When with Flavia I am toying]
I
When with Flavia I am toying,She with little sports gives o're,
Kissing is not half Enjoying,
Youth and Passion covet more;
Every touch methinks should move her,
And to dearer Joys invite,
When she knows how much I Love her,
And is fond of the delight.
51
II
Oh, I see her young and tender,Feel her Lips with passion warm,
See her ready to surrender,
When her fears dissolve the Charm:
Banish Flavia! all suspicion,
All your sullen doubts destroy,
Trust me, there's no worse condition,
Than to wish and not Enjoy.
