IANTHE the Lovely, the Joy of her Swain, By Iphis was lovd, and lovd Iphis again: She livd in the Youth, and the Youth in the Fair: Their Pleasures were Equal, and Equal their Care: No Time nor Enjoyment their Dottage withdrew; But the longer they livd, But the longer they livd, Still the Kinder they grew. A Passion so Happy, allarmd all the Plain; Some Envyd the Nymph, but more Envyd the Swain; Some swore twould be pity their Loves to invade; That the Lovers each one, for each other were Made: But All All consented, That none eer yet knew, A Nymph half so Fair, A Nymph half so Fair, Nor a Shepherd so True. For in their Beginning of Love we did find They strove, in their Love, who should still prove more kind: The Swain and the Nymph, by the Dawn of the Day In Innocent Love past the Minutes away, In each others Arms. Give the Lovers their due, They always were Constant, They always were Constant, And always were True. And several Years their True Love has gone on, And they are as good as when first they began: No Ends of our Loving! (the Nymph she did cry) No! No! (says the Shepherd) Ill Love till I Die. So Constant this Pair was, so Faithfull and True. That the longer they livd, That the longer they livd, Still the Fonder they grew. Love saw them, with Pleasure, and vowd to take Care Of the Constant, the Faithful, the Innocent Pair; What Either do want, Ill bid Either to move. But they wanted nothing, but Ever to Love. It was all that to Bless them, God Cupid could do, That they still might be Kind, That they still might be Kind, And they still might be True.
