John Gilbert Cooper


Charms like gleams of opening Heav’n.	1
As chaste as the silver-white beams of the moon.	2
As lively as tints of young Iris’ bow.	3
Pliant as the torrent flows.	4
Shine like gleams which sparkle in the crowns of kings barbaric.	5
Heart as spotless as the doves.	6
As sweet as Western wind breathes from the violets’ fragrant beds.	7
Warm in affection as Phœbus at noon.	8
