Towers and battlements it sees Bosom'd high in tufted trees, Where perhaps some beauty lies, The Cynosure of neighb'ring eyes.

[graphic][merged small][subsumed][subsumed]

Hard by, a cottage chimney smokes,
From betwixt two aged oaks,

Where Corydon and Thyrsis met

Are at their savoury dinner set,

Of herbs, and other country messes,
Which the neat-handed Phillis dresses;
And then in haste her bow'r she leaves,
With Thestylis to bind the sheaves;
Or, if the earlier season lead,

To the tann'd haycock in the mead.
