〈♫〉〈♫〉THe day you wish'd, arriv'd at last; you wish as much that it were past: One Minute more, and night will hide, the Bridegroom, and the blushing Bride. The Virgin now to Bed does go; take care, oh Youth, she rise not so: She pants and trembles at her doom, and sighs and wishes thou wouldst come.
II.
The Bridegroom comes, he comes apace,With Love and Fury in his Face:She shrinks away, he close pursues,And Prayers and Threats at once does use:She softly sighing, begs delay,And with her hand puts his away:Now out aloud for help she cryes,And now despairing shuts her Eyes.
Mr. Robert Smith.
