Poems upon several occasions with a voyage to the island of love : also The lover in fashion, being an account from Lydicus to Lysander of his voyage from the island of love / by Mrs. A. Behn ; to which is added a miscellany of new poems and songs, by several hands.

The TRANSPORT.

REjoyce! my new made happy Soul, Rejoyce! Bless the dear minute, bless the Heav'nly voice,

That has revok't thy fatal doom; Rejoyce! Aminta leads thee from the Tomb. Banish the anxious thoughts of dying hours, Forget the shades and melancholy Bow'rs, Thy Eyes so oft bedew'd with falling show'rs; Banish all Thoughts that do remain,

Of Sighing Days and Nights of Pain, When on neglected Beds of Moss thou'st lain:

Oh happy Youth! Aminta bids thee live; Thank not the sullen God's or defer Stars, Since from her Hand thou dost the Prize receive; Hers be the Service, as the bounty hers; For all that Life must dedicated be, To the fair God-like Maid that gave it Thee.

Now Lysidas, behold my happy State; Behold me Blest, behold me Fortunate, And from the height of languishing despair, Rais'd to the Glory of Aminta's care: And this one moment of my Heaven of Joy, Did the remembrance of past Griefs destroy: And Pity ceas'd not here; but with new Eloquence, Obliges the shy Maid to visit Confidence.
