A youth, adorn'd with every art To warm and win the coldest heart, In secret mine possess'd: The morning bud that fairest blows, The vernal oak that straightest grows, His face and shape express'd. In moving sounds he told his tale, Soft as the sighings of a gale That wakes the flowing year. What wonder he could charm with ease, Whom happy Nature form'd to please, Whom Love had made sincere?
