Fairest Isle |
Fairest isle, all isles excelling, |
Seat of pleasure and of love |
Venus here will choose her dwelling, |
And forsake her Cyprian grove. |
Cupid from his fav’rite nation |
Care and envy will remove; |
Jealousy, that poisons passion, |
And despair, that dies for love. |
Gentle murmurs, sweet complaining, |
Sighs that blow the fire of love |
Soft repulses, kind disdaining, |
Shall be all the pains you prove. |
Ev’ry swain shall pay his duty, |
Grateful ev’ry nymph shall prove; |
And as these excel in beauty, |
Those shall be renown’d for love. |
