The Feast

J. Oswald

Polly, when your lips you join,

Lovely ruby lips, to mine;

To the bee the flow'ry field

Such a banquet does not yield;

Not the dewy morning-rose

So much sweetness does inclose;

Not the gods such nectar sip,

As Colin from thy balmy lip:

Kiss me then, with rapture kiss,

We'll surpass the gods in bliss.
