The girl that I love is as mild as Aurora, Discreet as Minerva and youthful as Flora. Rejoic'd at her presence fond Nature looks gay; The trees bow their heads on each side of her way. The flowers send forth a profusion of sweet, The grass looks more green that is trod by her feet; The birds hover round as she trips it along, And improve from her voice the best notes of her song. Great Phœbus himself is delighted to see A power more bright and all-cheering than he; And, stopping his steeds in the midst of their way, He gazes, forgetting to drive on the day.
