W: 2. To ev'ry Youth I'll not be gay
W: \t Nor try on all my power
W: Nor future pleasures throw away
W: \t In toying for an Hour
W: I would not reign the general Toast
W: \t Be prais'd by all the Town
W: A thousand Tongues on me are lost
W: \t I'll hear but only one.
W:
W: 3. For which of all the flattering Train
W: \t Who swarm at beauty's Shrine
W: When Youths gay charms are in the wane
W: \t Will court their sure decline
W: Then Fops and Wits and Beaus forbear
W: \t Your arts will never do
W: For some fond Youth shall be my care
W: \t Lifes checquer'd Season thro'.
W:
W: 4. My little heart shall have a Home
W: \t A warm and shelter'd Nest
W: No giddy Flight shall make me roam
W: \t From where I am most blest
W: With Love and only that dear Swain
W: \t What tranquil Joys I see
W: Farewell ye false inconstant Train
W: \t For one is all to me.
