VOCAL ENCHANTRESS. 45<br />

Should I be call'd where cannons roar,<br />

Where m<strong>or</strong>tal fteel may wound me<br />

Or caft upon fome f<strong>or</strong>eign fh<strong>or</strong>e,<br />

Where dangers may furround me<br />

Yet hopes again to fee my love,<br />

To feaft on glowing kilfes,<br />

Shall make my care at diflance move,<br />

In pr<strong>of</strong>peft <strong>of</strong> fuch blifles.<br />

In all my foul <strong>the</strong>re's not one place<br />

To let a rival enter<br />

Since me excels in every grace,<br />

In her my love mall center.<br />

Sooner <strong>the</strong> leas mail ceafe to flow,<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir waves <strong>the</strong> Alps to cover ;<br />

On Greenland's ice (hall r<strong>of</strong>es grow,<br />

Bef<strong>or</strong>e I ceafe to love her.<br />

<strong>The</strong> next time I gang o'er <strong>the</strong> muir.<br />

She (hall a lover find me ;<br />

And that my faith is firm and pure,<br />

Tho' I left her behind me.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n Hymen's facred bonds mall chain<br />

My heart to her fair b<strong>of</strong>om<br />

<strong>The</strong>re, while my being does remain,<br />

My love m<strong>or</strong>e frefh ihall bl<strong>of</strong>fom.<br />
