"—the weeping Loves re* turn. On the black hills scarce breathes the lovely boy, While Venus weeps for her expiring joy. Down his white thigh distils the purple gore, Rent by the tusks of a devouring Boar; Feebler and feebler grow his languid eyes, N % i8o From his sweet lips the roseate colour flies; Dead is the Kiss, which Venus lov'd so well, On his dead lips yet Venus loves to dwell ! Dwells yet in fondness! but the lovely Boy Partakes no longer of the heartfelt joy. Dead is Adonis ( 'tis f...or him I mourn ) "Yes!— he is dead!"— the weeping Loves re- turn. Deep on his thigh the gaping wound is seen, Yet deeper wounded is the Cyprian Queen. His dogs howl round him, still a faithful train -, The hills re-echo as the Nymphs complain. With hair dishevelled thro' the trackless groves, Undress'd, distracted, now the Goddess roves, Tho' the sharp thorns her sacred body wound, With his dear name the winding vales resound : Alas! in vain! — Adonis' snowy side With blood fresh-streaming is in purple dy'd.
