The younger by their bloom my heart secure,The elder win it as they're more mature;And though the younger may excel in charms,The elder clasp you with experienc'd armsWhat all the city like, is liked by me,And I with them and all my loves agree.I'm proud to be the rival of the town,And to their taste will still conform my own.
