A Song in the Comedy calld Sr. Fopling Flutter Set by Mr John Eccles Sung by Mrs Hudson & exactly engrav'd by Tho: Cross .

Caelia with mournful pleasure hears my soft , my soft com - - plaints of Love ; mingles her wishes Sigh's and tear's & vow's — her heart I move . But when to the blest , the blest hour I press the willing , willing Maid denies ; and thô a passion she confess , yet her lov'd , yether lov'd Martyr dye's .

Duty forbids my tender suit , When ere she bids me love ; That guardian flame defends the fruit , The nodding bow wou'd give . Ah! might I with an am'rous Pray'r Attone her Fate and mine We 'd both enjoy , but to my share Fall all the load of Sin .
