7V;e Q.tarrclx f .air and Marriage. Wlicn Love and IIym;m both were boys, They t a tl iv'nf Mnilmg weather, To show each other all their toy, Aiutpass an atteruouu ti jther. To llvmen's bower voum? Cutmt came.

Ami each with earh w:is quick delighted:

Love shut his ti n ts ot surest ami,

Ami llymen'sbrijhtcst torch was lighted.

Rut Hymen soon, capricious elf, (Sow Hymen's but a peevish fellow,) , Told Loi he wishM tin. bow himself, And then began to pout and bellow. Love ftive his friend the weapon straight, (Young Love is such a cheerful giver') Andthu, for Hymen's torch of state, Changed his best bow and fullest quiver. While each his proper arms possest. Men neither could nor would resist 'em; For Hymen's tires inflamed their breast, And Cupid's arrows seldom missed 'em; Hut, dunging thus their arms about, The boys became perplexed and stupid; Love pats the torch cf llvmen out,

While Hymen blunts the shafts of Cupid.

Twas this dissolved their union sweet. An I broke Affection's firmest tether, So now if Love an 1 Hymen im ct, Thev seldom .journ long together.
