SCENE I.
A Magnificent Palace discover'd. Venus attended with Graces and Pleasures.Venus.
Let Him still brave my Son and Me,
Proud and disdainful God!
Yet, Phœbus, shall thy stubborn Heart be bow'd,
And Thou my Pow'r in my Resentment feel.—
Daphne has such resistless Charms,
That, gazing, He must love.—
2
They shall not cure thy Wound: Those Arts
Which aid the World, shall lend no Aid to Thee.
Vain were Graces,
Blooming Faces,
Beauty's Charms, or Cupid's Dart;
Blooming Faces,
Beauty's Charms, or Cupid's Dart;
If a Lover
Could recover,
Or, at Pleasure, guard his Heart.
With Speed, my faithful Foll'wers go,
Could recover,
Or, at Pleasure, guard his Heart.
A Place prepare, where mighty Love
His all-subduing Pow'rs may prove,
There Juices shed, there Flow'rets strew;
Whose magick Force shall work th' Effect
T' avenge this willful God's Neglect.
Daphne, shine! The Queen of Love
Shall each rising Charm improve.
[Exeunt Venus, and her
Graces, &c. severally.
Shall each rising Charm improve.
