LOUISA.

I met Louisa in the shade;And, having seen that lovely Maid,Why should I fear to sayThat she is ruddy, fleet, and strong;And down the rocks can leap along,Like rivulets in May?
And she hath smiles to earth unknown;Smiles, that with motion of their ownDo spread, and sink, and rise;That come and go with endless play,And ever, as they pass away,Are hidden in her eyes.
