Ovid. Ovid's Art of Love (in three Books), the Remedy of Love, the Art of Beauty, the Court of Love, the History of Love, and Amours. Dryden, John, et al., translator. New York: Calvin Blanchard, 1855.

  1. I am not half a horse, (I would I were :)
  2. Yet hardly can from you my hands forbear.
  3. Take, then, my counsel; which observ'd, may be,
  4. Of some importance both to you and me.
  5. Be sure to come before your man be there,
  6. There's nothing can be done, but come howe'er.
  7. Sit next him, (that belongs to decency;)
  8. But tread upon my foot in passing by.
  9. Read in my looks what silently they speak,
  10. And slily, with your eyes, your answer make.
