Amores

Ovid

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. Nor fear'd I long, for love my heart possess'd;
  2. Those visions vanish'd, and my terrors ceas'd:
  3. Nor ghosts nor scourers did I dread, but stroll'd
  4. The streets a-nights, and grew in peril bold.
  5. Thee only do I fear, and trembling stand
  6. To wait the motions of thy tardy hand:
  7. With soft request thy succour I implore,
  8. Nor sue to Jove nor dread the Thund'rer more.
