HINC LACHRIMAE; OR THE AUTHOR TO AURORA: 9, by WILLIAM BOSWORTHPoet's Biography
First Line: Wouldst thou but think with what entire delight Last Line: Yet use me gently, 'cause thou knowst I'm thine. Alternate Author Name(s): William Boxworth
Wouldst thou but think with what entire delight My soul was carried to those joys, and whither; Wouldst thou but think how strong we did unite Into one bond our mutual loves together; Wouldst thou but reconcile thy wand'ring sense, And cease t' afflict with thy impartial eyes; Wouldst thou but hear the prayer which I commence, One show'r might cherish yet the root which dies. But thou art wise, and canst thy worth refine, Yet use me gently, 'cause thou knowst I'm thine.
