SONG.
[With Chloe, wanton Cupid, play'd]
With Chloe, wanton Cupid, play'd,
At cards, and won all, from the Maid,
Her jealous doubts, her anxious fears,
Her sudden sighs, her angry tears.
At cards, and won all, from the Maid,
Her jealous doubts, her anxious fears,
Her sudden sighs, her angry tears.
She staked,—the Urchin, won, beside,
Her cruel scorn, her haughty pride;
But worst, indeed, he waged his dart,
Turn'd trumps, and won her virgin heart!
Her cruel scorn, her haughty pride;
But worst, indeed, he waged his dart,
Turn'd trumps, and won her virgin heart!
