He lounges not, but waits for an occasion;
Haply at last his prudence finds a maid
Whose heart, susceptible, and sympathetick,
In concord sweet revibrates to his own.
Thus does the wary connoisseur in love,
Taste all it's joys, and all it's pains elude;
He scapes the prickles of the flower; he crops
Nought but the sweets of that Arabian rose.

The sweet unseasoned with a dash of bitter
Is soon succeeded by satiety.

With an inordinate and painful craving.

And if that high regale, when 'tis enjoyed,
Impresses an Elysium on the memory,
Raising the joy of every repetition.
