EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 5. BY LITTLE AND LITTLE by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: SEE HOW THE BEAR INDUSTRIOUSLY DOES FRAME
Last Line: WITH MELTING LIPS AND WITH A SOOTHING TONGUE.
Subject(s): LOVE;
SEE how the bear industriously does frame,
And bring in time to form, her unshaped young:
So may you mould the rough unpliant dame
With melting lips and with a soothing tongue.
