Phillis, this pious talk give o'er, <br />And modesty pretend no more, <br />It is too plain an art: <br />Surely you take me for a fool, <br />And would by this prove me so dull <br />As not to know your heart. <br /> <br />In vain you fancy to deceive; <br />For truly I can ne'er believe <br />But this is all a sham, <br />Since any one may plainly see <br />You'd only save yourself with me, <br />And with another damn.<br /><br />Matthew Prior<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/songs-set-to-music-7-set-by-mr-de-fesch/
