[Music ]
WIthin an Arbour of Delight,
As sweet as Bowers Elisian,
Where famous Sidney us'd to write,
I lately had a Vision;
Methought beneath a Golden State,
The Turns of Chance obeying,
Six of the World's most noted great,
At Piquette were a playing.
The first two were the brave Eugene,
With Vendosme Battle waging,
The next a Nymph, who to be Queen,
Her Mounsieur was engaging:
The Fleur de-lis, old Maintenon,
With sanctified Carero;
And next above the scarlet Don,
Queen Anne, and Gallick Nero.
