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. Yet better so than not to love at all;
  2. Still on my foes may such dull blessings fall.
  3. May they, insipidly supine, be spread
  4. Along the middle of a widowed bed;
  5. While I with sprightliness love's vigil's keep,
  6. Stretch'd out for something far more sweet than sleep.
