Lyrics: Anon

Fairest work of happy Nature,
Sweet without dissembling art;
Kind in ev'ry other feature,
Cruel only in a heart:
View the beauties of the morning,
Where no sullen clouds appear;
Graces there are less adorning
Than below, when Celia's here.

Ev'ry tuneful breast confesses
Sounds by you improve their pow'r;
Ev'ry tongue, in soft addresses,
Fondly whispers its amour.
Such a boon, indulgent blessing!
Faithful Strephon don't deny.
'Tis free use that makes possessing:
Give me love or let me die.
