william denis browne - to gratiana dancing and singing lyrics

Loading...

see! with what constant motion
even, and glorious, as the sun
gratiana steers that n0ble frame
soft as her breast, sweet as her voice
that gave each winding law and poise
and swifter than the wings of fame

each step trod out a lover’s thought
and the ambitious hopes he brought
chain’d to her brave feet with such arts;
such sweet command, and gentle awe
as when she ceas’d, we sighing saw
the floor lay pav’d with broken hearts

so did she move; so did she sing
like the harmonious spheres that bring
unto their rounds their music’s aid;
which she performèd such a way
as all th’ enamoured world will say:
the graces danced, and apollo play’d
