But Prior's age did not care for their simple beauty. It could not value that art quce celat artem. To the above delightful speech it preferred the following : — What is our bliss, that changeth with the moon, And day of life, that darkens ere 'tis noon ? What is true passion, if unblest it dies ? And where is Emma's joy, if Henry flies ? If love, alas ! be pain, the pain I bear No thought can figure, and no tongue declare. Ne'er faithful woman felt, nor false one feign'd The flames which long ...have in my bosom reign'd ; The God of love himself inhabits there, With all his rage, and dread, and grief, and care. His complement of stores and total war. Oh ! cease then coldly to suspect my love, And let my deed at least my faith approve. Alas ! no youth shall my endearments share, Nor day nor night shall interrupt my care ; Digitized by VjOOQiC 268 FOLIA LITTERARIA No future story shall with truth upbraid The cold indifference of the nut-brown maid ; Nor to hard banishment shall Henry run, While careless Emma sleeps on beds of down.
