VALENTINE.

EASE to perfuade, my loving Protheus;
Home-keeping Youth have ever homely Wits;
Wer't not Affection chains thy tender Days,
To the fweet Glances of thy honour'd Love
I rather would intreat thy Company,

To fee the Wonders of the World abroad.

Than, living dully fluggardiz'd at home,
Wear out thy Youth with fhapeless Idleness.
But fince thou lov'ft, love ftill, and thrive therein,
Even as I would when I to love begin.

Pro. Wilt thou be gone? Sweet Valentine, adieu;
Think on thy Protheus, when thou haply feeft
Some rare Note-worthy Object in thy Travels
With me Partaker in thy Happiness

When thou doft meet good Hap; and in thy Danger,
If ever Danger do environ thee,

VOL. I.
