Wanton gales, that fondly play Round about my love-sick head, Quickly waft my sighs away To the nymph for whom I bleed. Softly whisper in her ear, All the pains for her I feel, All the torments that I bear, Tell her she alone can heal. Then, with unsuspected care, Gently fan her lovely breast; Happy you may revel there, Where each god would wish to rest. If one spark of fond desire, Harbour'd there by chance you find, Raise it to a lasting fire, Such as burns within my mind.
