A Song, set by Mr. King, &c.
THe cruel Nymph had with dissembled Hate,Pronounc'd her Strephon's wretched Fate.When the Swain saw a Combate in her Eye,Youthful and active Love,With daring Honour strove,And eagerly pursu'd the Victory.
At length the Imperious Foe was forc'd to yield,And Love commanded all the Field:Then, on her Cheeks his Banners he display'd,And in Triumphant State,To applaud the Conquerours Fate,Legions of Cupids grac'd the lovely Maid.
