XV

  When shining arms at distance she perceives,

  Or any thing that speaks a cavalier,

  'Tis her desired Rogero, she believes;

  And her fair eyes and brows are seen to clear.

  If footman, or unarmed, the maid conceives,

  It is a courier from the youthful peer;

  And, though fallacious every hope she feeds,

  Another and another aye succeeds.
