| Loves Quintessence. / Or, The Frolick on Hackney Marsh. / A comly Nymph, upon a fragrant Plain, / Implor'd one hours pastime of her Swain / But he deny'd, until a piercing Dart / Created Love in him and smote his heart. / Then mutually they both imbrac't each other, / And if their actions don't, no more will I discover. | ||
