The Sparrow and the gentle Dove
(Sacrifices fit for love)
Roses sweet and Myrtle bring,
Beauties of the blooming Spring,
Into sacred Garlands twine
To offer up to Venus' shrine,
That the pleasures they possess
May still increase and still be fresh,
And by a more exalted love
Each happy hour to come improve.
