THE FIRST PASTORAL
TO SIR WILLIAM TRUMBAL
FIRST in theſe fields I try the ſylvan ſtrains,
Nor blush to ſport on Windſor's bliſsful plains:
Fair Thames flow gently from thy ſacred ſpring,
While on thy banks Sicilian Muſes ſing;
Let vernal airs thro' trembling oſiers play,
And Albion’s cliffs reſound the rural lay.
