Smil'd at the Terrours of the Fight;
The Thoughts of Conquest charm'd his Eyes,
He conquer'd, and he wept the Prize.

Sweetly deceives the distant Sight,
Where the tir'd Travellers survey,
O'er hanging Rocks, a dang'rous Way.

Seem but half Kind, when most you love;
Damon pursues if Cælia flies,
But when her Love is born, his dies.
