SONG.
1.
1 When Daphne first her Shepherd saw,
2 A sudden Trembling seiz'd her;
3 Honour her wandring Looks did awe,
4 She durst not view what pleas'd her.
2.
5 When at her Feet he sighing lay,
6 She found her Heart complying;
7 Yet wou'd not to her Love give way,
8 To save her Swain from dying.
3.
9 The little God stood laughing by
10 To see her dextrous feigning;
11 He bid the blushing Fair comply,
12 The Shepherd leave complaining.
