The fan surrender'd to a meaning look
Which spoke your heart in earnest to regain it
And like a potent charm the majic broke
That caus'd your friend unjustly to detain it
So vanquish'd generals drop their honours down
And at the victors feet their ensigns lay
Fidelias wit has gain'd the civic crown
And now I send the tributary bay —
But what are civic crowns from timpes vale
Compar'd to friendships fascinating ties
Cleanders smile preponderates the scale
And tho to wit I yield, I must contest that prize.
