When forced from dear Hebe to go, What anguish I felt at my heart; And I thought, but it might not be so, She was sorry to see me depart. She cast such a languishing view, My path I could scarcely discern; So sweetly she bade me adieu, I thought that she bade me return. Methinks she might like to retire To the grove I had laboured to rear, For whatever I heard her admire, I hasted and planted it there. Her voice such a pleasure conveys, So much I her accents adore. Let her speak, and whatever she says, I'm sure still to love her the more.
