199. Song - My Peggy’s CharmsMY Peggy’s face, my Peggy’s form, The frost of hermit Age might warm; My Peggy’s worth, my Peggy’s mind, Might charm the first of human kind.
I love my Peggy’s angel air, Her face so truly heavenly fair, Her native grace, so void of art, But I adore my Peggy’s heart.
The lily’s hue, the rose’s dye, The kindling lustre of an eye; Who but owns their magic sway! Who but knows they all decay!
The tender thrill, the pitying tear, The generous purpose nobly dear, The gentle look that rage disarms - These are all Immortal charms.
