Edward Lovibond


Dear delusions, fairy charms, As fancy dreams in virtue’s arms.	1
Firm as the oak on rocky heights.	2
As warm and graceful as May.	3
Mild as the zephyr, like zephyr that throws Its sweets on the sweet-breathing May.	4
Flows … as proudly as Tiber by Rome.	5
He sighs like David’s son for Sheba’s queen.	6
Spread like an ocean.	7
