  1. Gods, with what charms did she my soul surprise!
  2. What snowy arms did I both see and feel!
  3. With what rich globes did her soft bosom swell!
  4. Plump as ripe clusters rose each glowing breast,
  5. Courting the hand, and suing to be press'd!
  6. What a smooth plain was on her belly spread,
  7. Where thousand little loves and graces play'd!
  8. What thighs! what legs ! but why strive I in vain,
