VI.
Yet oh! fair Virgin, caution take,
Lest some bold Cheat assume the Snake;
When Jove comprest the [1]Grecian Dame,
Aloof he threw the Lightning's Flame;
On radiant Spires the Lover rode,
And in the Snake conceal'd the God.
Yet oh! fair Virgin, caution take,
Lest some bold Cheat assume the Snake;
When Jove comprest the [1]Grecian Dame,
Aloof he threw the Lightning's Flame;
On radiant Spires the Lover rode,
And in the Snake conceal'd the God.
